My name is Rachel and I'm a native of San Diego, CA . I grew up as child #4 in a family of seven kids. My former places of residence have been Davis, CA (5 years), Hungary (1 1/2 years), Carmel, IN (12 years) and most recently Lima, Peru. I've been in Lima since September of 2016. I currently teach English and also started giving piano lessons. I'm writing this blog as a promise to many people to keep them updated on my many adventures.

Random Day Trip

Erin contacted me one day out of the blue and said she was up for an outing. Casey was gone for the night. Something quick, not too far away, and interesting. So we headed to the next town over Barranco. It's kind of known as the hippy spot of Lima. I went there a few weekends ago with Carly and found some fun spots.



Barranco is right on the coast, and as Erin pointed out, we don't usually see so much greenery



The buildings are brightly colored



This walkway has all these brightly colored murals that I like to look at

This one is my favorite. The cats eyes are the windows of the building. 

After exploring this colorful walkway Erin said she had heard in her Spanish class everyone talk about a place called MAC. I looked it up on my phone and figured out it was the Museo Arte Contemporaneo (Comtemporary Art Museum). It was a 20 min walk but we had time. Lucky us, it was free that day. We explored for a bit and then realized we had walked far enough it was just easy to walk back home.
