Another month passed by

With this weekend's elections in Belgium, I've come to realise that actually I am a bit far away from home. Last time round I lived in Dublin, was officially registered there and arranged my vote (compulsary in Belgium, even for expats), but this year, since I'm still registered in Ireland, I never received any communication and never took any action myself either, so that no vote will be cast. Anyway, who would I vote for, having been living abroad for over 7 years or something like that? I still know some of the names of politicians, but start frowning when I see the names the political parties have nowadays, apparently as well it has become difficult to go alone, according to a orientation test on the website of De Standaard newspaper, I should be closest to Spirit, then Groen!, ...
And to your amazement, they've asked me if there still was a politician named Van den Bossche, because once there was a belgian girl on a lonely trip in Arequipa, her name was Freya, and she stole the hearts of many peruvians ...

Btw, just switched newspapers, went to the morgen, and they are free!

In the meantime, what has changed here.

I am still teaching english, but now in a different and more serious institute, they pay me 8 soles per hour, or 12 for business english taught on-site. I hate it when a keyboard is not configured correctly.
Still working saturdays and every now and then other nights in Déjà-vu, the bar-discotheque and from next week on I'll start working in The Point, a backpacker's hostel owned by an isrealian and en english guy, run by a dutch girl, ...
The israelian is never here, as he also owns parts of the other points in Lima and Cuzco and lives in Lima ... James, the english is not too often in his hostel and therefore they have Danielle running the place. Now I'll need to impress them, as Danielle is going home at the end of July, so I should try to get her job by then. Pays about 1.000 soles a month plus accomodation and food. In my job I'll only be remunarated with bedding and food. But that takes close to 300 soles of my expenses. Deal still needs to be sealed but don't see any hurdles.

How at times I¡m thinking back of Argentina, the country that treated me so well, especially Salta. But if I remember well, the start there wasn't thet easy either. I'm going to get things fixed, but it looks as if it's going to cost me my girlfriend.
