Navidad Abroad

Last week we celebrated Christmas in our school. It is always strange to celebrate holidays like this in places without snow and or pine trees however, the sparkly plastic singing tree that we set up in the school was pretty special to say the least. We decorated it´s synthetic branches with llama ornaments and flashing lights.
Each spanish class prepared a different dish and at the end of the night we had a multi-cultural feast, making a toast with a glass of pisco sour or chicha morada, classic peruvian drinks.
Being my first Christmas away from home, it made me feel a bit nostalgic but I was very grateful to have some celebration and to be surrounded by so many new friends from all over the world.
