*This was across 2 weeks from NY to CT to RI to MA, and back to NY. I am missing probably a lot, but those were what just came to my mind :) Now I am back to Lima and in the few days I've been back, I've enjoyed some of my favorites that Lima has to offer.

analysis, reports, last minute meetings...

It's a busy last week on this project.

My last search on google translater just made me smile though:
  
"Uno viaja apachurrada" = You travel squashed

I think I like it because a) it's a new word for me, and b) it says "squashed" instead of "squished."
