I have started language school today. The 1 on 1 instruction is much different than taking Spanish classes in school! Pretty much everyone I interact with here in Cuzco only speaks Spanish. I'm getting along pretty well, actually better than I would have expected, but it surprisingly wearing to constantly be trying to communicate in Spanish. The classes here seem good. I get called out on every little detail though, with all the grammar needing to be correct, which is I think quite good, but very different than how I learned Spanish in Guatemala which was more focused on just getting a message across successfully, without concern for how sloppy it might be.
I am planning on going to Machu Picchu this weekend if that works out. Still uncertain if I will remain in Cuzco for the following week or go elsewhere.
