Signing off from Peru

We have finished our teacher training and are working on the DACUM to help create new curriculum for Irrigation Technicians in these massive farm projects. Monday evening we leave for Canada. An interesting journey and we have met some amazing hard working people who really care about their region and their country. Large multi-national companies are driving the huge irrigation projects that allow farming in what is essentially a desert. Once they drain the Amazon I imagine these companies will move on to another Eco system - for me a disturbing situation.

Below are students from the technology school in Chiclayo where we are working. They process honey and sell it as part of their school project along with eggs and other items that are produced at the school.

Out of range now so signing off from Chiclayo, the city of friendship in Peru.
