No Swell

sunny 25 °C

We´re still in Pacasmayo, surf has been small for the last few days. We´ve been mostly just chilling out playing cards, reading books, surfing and relaxing ... We´ll be here for another week or so although we may go to world famous Chicama if the swell picks up.

Pacasmayo

sunny 28 °C

This part of Peru is much dryer than I had imagined- full on desert complete with sand dunes and almost no vegetation, especially further south, near Lima. It´s also cooler than I had thought, maybe 26-28 degrees and spring suit recommended for surfing. Pacasmayo is nice - quiet and good surf, although dusty and dirty as well. I am sick but I don´t think it´s serious.

I´m struggling with the language but that is to be expected after only five days! I do think I need to try and interact with the locals a bit more if I´m going to improve more quickly. Also Tom tends to do most of the talking when we´re together because he is better than me.
