I left for my foreign exchange on July 28th, 2013. It's now January, 2016! It's been a long, long time. I was fortunate enough to spend a few weeks back in Lima the Christmas after I got back. Since then I have been working and studying and enjoying my time back in the US. I feel a pang in my heart whenever I think about Peru. I miss the hustle and bustle of Lima, and the exhilarating freedom I felt living there. I'm back in my hometown currently, good ol' Rice Lake, Wisconsin. I just finished my first semester at the University of Wisconsin-Barron County and am very pleased to be working on another upcoming trip. I'm applying to study abroad in Fiji! I hope everything works out.
Thanks for everything.

Nearly four years later, and here I am. I graduated with an Associate degree and am now studying Political Science at the University of Wisconsin--River Falls. I traveled to Fiji in 2016 and lived there for a semester. Now I'm trying to get back into the blog game. Check out the page I'll be updating from now on: www.gingerpinkerton.blogspot.com
