First Interim Report

first Arrival in the country

started on 08/08/2010 for me my weltwärts year in Peru. We came with a 18-member Volunteer group in the evening at the airport in Lima, where we were already expected by our coordinators and Mechthild Olaf. With a small bus we went without complications in a hostel in the district of Miraflores, this should be the venue for our introductory seminar for the next few days.

1.1 Introduction seminar in the host country

After being prepared in detail to our preparation seminar in Germany from the ASA team to a welwärts use in general, I hoped the introductory seminar some country-specific information about Peru and Special to about my project.

I could broaden my horizons beyond the culture and people of Peru in the 5 days. Besides the issues of racism in Peru "and" rules of conduct in using space "it was the alternative city tour with Alois Kenenrknecht my personal highlight. I could for myself personally take a lot more than I would have done it in workshops and lectures. A specific preparation for my project I had to miss unfortunately, also in the introductory seminar. To the organization, it is noted that in the circumstances, fatigue on the one-anticipation and curiosity was on the land on the other hand, is appropriate. There was a rough guide to the 5 seminar days, but this was flexible. The place is a cozy hostel with wireless internet was great for such a seminar.

01.02 arrival on the use of space, inclusion, incorporation

On the evening of 08/13/2010 I was at the airport of Pucallpa. There I was by my host father Jorge, the regional manager of AIDER, Pio, received the DED development worker Manuel and Claudia, a weltwärts volunteers who was nearing the end of their year. They brought me to my host family. The reception was cordial, but I quickly realized I would not live here very long. I did not want to live with a host family, first and second bothered me that my host father to me more rent than was required by my predecessors.

The following Monday I played my first day at AIDER. I went with Julie, a Luxembourg short volunteer, to the office where I met Manuel. He informed me that the chief, Pio, this week would not be there and that's why I Edinson, another worker, it should introduce into the work. Who knew nothing of it, however, and so I spent the first day and following on with persönlichn errands Internet. By the time I got to my remaining staff, with whom I get along the way, very good, but a proper introduction to my work I was able to enjoy at AIDER not now. There is no right AIDER work at it for me,

second Activities on the use of space

My activities in the office are limited accordingly mainly on personal errands Internet. While I was in the first month a few times at Manuel's project to help the construction of a storage and processing center for certified tropical timber, but since the funding sources to do so by the end of September were exhausted, there are currently nothing to do for me. I know that my under-employment in the office to some extent even indebted. I would have to look for from the start even more intensive tasks yourself. But I'm also not expected to be made in advance in any way concerned about a possible job for me. To the often frustrating "Internet Surferei" to escape the office - at least I'm sitting on a bad day from 8-13 Clock and 15-18h through the computer - I try as often as possible in the indigenous communities where AIDER his wood- certification project implemented to come. Although there are there any real work for me, but I can participate in some activities of AIDER technicians and to the daily lives of residents. I would like to take this Point to stress that any of my 4 trips is due to an indigenous community on my own initiative, and that I all pending issues (travel, fuel, verpleger) have been paying out of pocket. Lso is to mention that I have spent some time with my Mitfreiwilligen, Melanie, together on a waste management project in the indigenous communities. During this time, although I had the job I had hoped and still hope right now, but I have decided for various reasons against this project. First, I did not like the attitude of AIDER. It was pursuing my opinion, only a political interest, just wanted to seven churches a system that does not matter whether or not there is, and let such important aspects unnoticed. Second, the approach and ways of working by myself and Melanie fundamentally different, which would have inevitably led to conflict for me, and thirdly, I realize in hindsight that I am behind a project of this kind can not stand with conviction. So right now I have no activities on the use of space, which has discouraged me personally. I must change something in the next year. There

2.1 Support by mentor / country office

My coordinator Mechthild me feel it's there in difficult situations and emergencies for me. When my roommate and I were aware of the amount of our rent had a conflict, they could help us. When I informed them about my problems at work in a private conversation, she could indeed make me courage, but the problems are until now still there. Overall, I would like her and support the country offices as little as necessary to complete. In my opinion, it belongs to a weltwärts year to ensure that you learn to solve problems and all difficulties, as much as possible of the work and life in the culture of the partner country take for yourself personally.

02.02 perspectives

for the new year, I made up my mind, I look with renewed courage and motivation of new longer-term task. I was already in discussions with other volunteers and with Manuel reflect my problems and have to say that I am also largely responsible for ensuring that I have my weltwärts year at the working level not yet be described as a success. I'll try next year, initially to find a job would AIDER a fixed position. Currently I do a project that is dedicated to the production of natural rubber in indigenous communities, hope. If I was there but should not find work, I will realize your own project. Fortunately, the AIDER are very open, so I do not really all possibilities are given to me and realize a project itself.

third Life in the partner country: housing, food, contacts, etc.

my first month in Pucallpa I lived with a host family. My start there was unfortunately a bit discordant. My host father would ask me instead of the agreed 320 350 Soles Soles rent. Although he was one of 320 Soles, but showed me that fact that I do not, but my money was welcome to this family. The fact that I have from the beginning rather wanted to live in a residential community with volunteers, I made the decision easy to take off after a month. I now live together with 3 other DED Weltwärts learning in a Peruvian, Techy, which provides for each of us a room with bathroom. We can use their Hasuhaltsgeräte, the kitchen and the garden. I am now very comfortable there. Although we have recently had some problems with Techy, which refers, however, mainly on our part, inappropriate behavior. In a crisis meeting, we got a long catalog of rules that we observe now and realize that we get along so much better together. Currently, the mood improved again and I am confident that I will stay live for the next 6 months there.

addition to my work I have for leisure time mostly on weekends. I often go with my roommates in discotheques and we sometimes do and excursions in the surrounding area Pucallpas. It often is Alex, the Brazilian husband of a German DED development worker, our guide. I would call him here as my best friend. Next to him I have some contacts with Peruvians. Sorry, have no real friendships develop. Such a thing takes time. With my colleagues I get along well, but privately, I am usually not with them. I wish for the new year that I meet new people with whom I can spend my free time.

4th Recognizable problems, solutions

Overall, I see in weltwärts with DED a big problem. This does not apply to private life, but to work in the partner country. I feel that my project has little or not prepared at the one-year collaboration with a volunteer. Although I bring as opposed to an aid worker with little skills, but I think that the German Abitur can already form the basis for some work. Accordingly, I could certainly some in the office of AIDER Tasks are performed, but until now this was unfortunately not the case. Talking to other DED volunteer, I realized that my problem is not unique. Many volunteers are on their work under busy to lose their motivation to ask for daily tasks, and so are also, as I think I happened into a deep hole of self-pity and unmotivated nature. My proposed solution to this problem is that the projects should be prepared for the intense collaboration with a volunteer. This might help on a page to produce before the welwärts-year e-mail contact between the project and volunteers to already communicate before arriving in the host country of possible tasks. On the other side comes at this point the question of the amount of volunteers. Can find two volunteer coordinators for 46 good projects?

welwärts from smaller organizations, I have heard that the cooperation between sending and project is much more intense and thus Aufagebn for volunteers are available. My proposed solution to the problem, then, that the partner organizations are more intense cooperation with Entsenderorganisation in the future better prepared for the volunteers. One should übelegen to send volunteers may be less, to give everyone the opportunity to get a real job.

5th Previous learning experience, especially

I could now learn about the Peruvian culture. This is not the place to enumerate all of these experiences, but I want to mention that I think mitlerweile, much to understand what seemed to me at the beginning nor funny. This can mainly refers to the operation of the office and I am confident that I found in the new year a new job and motivate me.

Super holiday, even without a camera

travel in Peru as an educational trip. You win so many new impressions and experiences, that in spite of long sleep and lots of free time to learn new. My first trip was from Pucallpa to Tarapoto. Just the ride was quite an adventure. The unpaved road led through some very original rain forest. Several rivers had to be crossed by makeshift Pars, as the old suspension bridges, the weight of a coach could not stand anymore. On a particularly narrow point on the road slope was then first circuit. Before us was a hill run down and some workers tried using dynamite to make the place safe again. Very exciting, especially in the rainy season, not a rare phenomenon. After several Hours without air conditioning through the hot and humid tropical landscape, I finally arrived in Tarapoto, Peru's third largest metropolis in the jungle. I stayed here one night. I indulged in a single room with TV and private bath to cure for my recently eingafangene otitis media.

The next morning, going out early. I had signed up for a rafting tour and with two young Peruvians and a guide, we started at 9 clock. Our course took about one and a half hours on the Rio Mayo. The rafting was quite nice, but not a real adventure. I expected more and I hope that I find on other rivers still my rafting adventure can.

At about noon, then a minivan after Moyobamba. The capital of the department of San Martin was a few days later, the venue for a memorable Christmas with 11 DED volunteers. First, however, again called the adventure. I went with Betty to Chachapoyas. In the capital of the department of Amazonas, we wanted to look at the Ausgrabunsstätte "Kuelap and the waterfall Gocta. On the evening of 21.12. we arrived in Chachapoyas. The very remote town lies at 2,300 meters altitude in the Selva Alta - the high rain forest. The temperatures are much cooler than the warm Moyobamba and we were met by an unpleasant rain. For but could not excuse the incredibly beautiful plaza, which turned into a colonial-style plazas all previously seen in Peru in the shade.

the evening we met spontaneously Philip, another Weltwärtsler, who was also on the trip to the great Christmas in Moyobamba. We exchanged information and experiences over a beer, but then fell asleep quickly because the next day Kuélap waiting for us. Tired of the long day we fell into the rock-hard beds of our spartan Hostalzimmers to get up a little later gewzungener dimensions have again. I would like to explain why. I had talked with Betty a little, to first she fell asleep. I was about to tell me to go into the realm of dreams, when I heard a slight rustle of paper. Paper - moment, there was something. One of the little window next to our door was broken and taped with a piece of paper. The window next to the door, where there was also the outlet, put in my phone. Cell. Oh no. I jumped up and had to admit that hung at the other end of the charging cable does not mobile anymore. This may not be true. Yet another mobile phone away. I was quite nervous at the end, it was after the Rucksackklau already the second within a month. I reported the theft of the reception, which closed immediately helpful Hostal with me and started to look. Across the street from our room 3 young men were staying, had entered a few minutes before the hostel and the only guests were still awake. The case seemed clear, but it turned out very difficult. Of course, wanted the 3 drunken guys have nothing to do with the theft. We could scan them and their room, yes. After talks eternal - God God bla bla bla - I wanted to give up when suddenly there appeared a man who posed as responsible for the three figures. Long story short, after a few minutes I had my cell phone again and the three types have been thrown out of the hostel. I would not have had little desire to "Leader" of the three to really hit a breakfast on the ****, but eventually won my reason and fatigue. Finally we could sleep.

Kuelap was a fortress of the Chachapoyas warriors. The opportunity today to nearly 3,000 meters excavation site is still barely developed tourism. We were on that day along with about 25 other people the only visitors. Time seems to stand still in Kuelap. We were there live, such as human bones were dug up and the solitude and remoteness give the place a mysterious mysticism, which I had never experienced that. Most of the ruins are not well understood by wild and overgrown with vegetation. Bettina and I were enchanted by this place. The long and grueling journey had been worthwhile in any case. The pictures, which I unfortunately could not hold photographs (as you know I had to deny this trip without a camera - but Betty has taken a few photos), I will stay long in the memory.

comes after the visit of this unique place on the course compared to Machu Picchu. Whether Kuélap now "better" than Machu Picchu but I can not answer that after the visit. I can definitely say that it is very different. Definitely it is more original and personal. One must not share the place with thousands of tourists, but has the feeling that you really discovered something unique. Our guide told us that the scientists on the functions of many buildings still groping in the dark. People could develop their own theories and hypotheses form.

Total "flashed" by Kuélap it was the same day direction Gocta waterfall. We took a colectivo to the junction to the village Cocachimba. Once there, it was already dark, but yet we were about 4 km walk. It was the most beautiful night walk of my life. The moon and many fireflies lit us the way and in the background was the soothing sound of the river heard. We looked for a place between high bushes to put up our tent there. However, "... you hear the Schscht Alessandro? - No ... there is nothing - But! - Ahhhh ... now I hear it also, let us quickly away here! - Ok. I'm really scared! "What was that now, we still do not know, but there was definitely something. We decided to go further into the village. There was a hotel that had rooms available. In our narrow Weltwärts purse but it would leave a noticeable hole. So we asked around and came at the end with a farming family. The tiny bedroom was furnished with two beds. On one of the farmer slept, his wife and son. The other she did for Betty and me free. I was touched by the Gastfreundaschaft. The woman apologized for the simple constant Verhätnisse. We had a guilty conscience. That was probably the reason that to me in the night hardly an eye was doing.

In the morning we started at 5:30. Betty and I walked about 2 hours on some very steep paths until we reached tropical forests over the Gocta waterfall. This 771-meter-high miracle of nature could meet all my expectations. The third highest waterfall in the world was an unforgettable experience. Too bad to see that its not a photo of him is.

On the way back we could Andean Cock of the national bird Peru's watch. Another element that made this trip unique. Totally exhausted we arrived in Cocachimba. We left the farmer and his wife a few Soles, and made our way back to Moyobamba, where we met in the evening to the other volunteers. Our group was complete, eleven German Weltwärtsler, a very special Christmas had before them. The evening was a reasonable conclusion in the hot springs of Moyobamba.

The next morning I got slept on. A normal day with the difference that today was Christmas. Funny. Had I not told me it would not have noticed. The giant group made on to a (small) waterfall. This was our Christmas. At 30 degrees on a cool river and a refreshing mango for lunch. Is this paradise or just Peru? I enjoyed my freedom, I fell several times over the cliff into the cool water and realized my luck. That was just great.

Satisfied, we drove back to Moyobamba. It should now give a very special meal. Every man for a trifle, so we had a huge, exclusively vegetarian (!!!) and super tasty menu. There was a noodle casserole, Causa rellena, different variations of banana, bread, burgers, eggs, Russian, Greek salad, cheese fondue and a huge fruit salad. After the hearty meal we did have Max in Santa Claus. I got a Diätbox, the contents of a small Salzkeks was. Thank you Max, unfortunately I have forgotten my diet plan in Moyobamba, so I'll probably continue to increase :-) The rest of the evening was spent in a disco. Unlike usual, but not necessarily bad. Overall, we, Anne, Theresa, Jannes, Jacob, Philip, Max, Laszlo, Nora Amelie, Betty and I have a memorable Christmas.

the 25th and 26 We could take it easy. That was probably the calm before the storm, because we expected Sylvester in Mancora, THE beach town of Peru. On the evening of 26 it went off. We made stops in Chiclayo and Piura, where we met the other volunteers got to know the cities and has already made first experiences with the aggressive sun of the Peruvian north coast. Am 29.12. We were then in Mancora. The place itself is not beautiful and the beach would not win a prize, but the sea is very refreshing and there are high waves. We had a great hostel and really enjoyed our time. The highlight was of course the New Year's Eve. The place was bursting at the seams. The beach was strewn with tents, on the road to get through was more but 21 clock and collapsed the entire mobile phone network. Midnight with his feet in the water and along with thousands of other people on the beach fireworks how it is used to in Germany, was a great experience. It was still a long night, the clock ended the morning until 8 in the bed of the hostel. Overall a very successful New Year also.

The next morning, the mood was noticeably subdued. Today was the day the group's split. A part of it moved back to Chachapoyas, me and another part to the north Ecuador. Tired and drained it first went to Tumbes. Here we wanted to sleep a little and take Soso, a Mitabiturientin of me. The meeting then a lot of relatively short, because we were too tired easily. The next day we drove fast. We crossed the border, went to Machala and got there in a bus to Cuenca. I bought in Machala Rei with chicken, which was then 2 hours later during the bus ride from all possible orifices back out of me. You are, that's always the experience to make a bus trip, where you have a seat anyway caught more, really memorable.

Cuanca is a beautiful city. There are an incredible number of churches and museums. It was good to stay here for two days to dismiss the remaining rice with the chicken out of my body and come to the party last quite intensive days back a little on the bottom of the facts.

So beautiful Cuenca was, I was drawn to Quito. On the one hand, I'm generally a fan of capital, on the other hand, waited Merle, also Mitabiturientin and good friend to me. It is also Weltwärts activist, but by a different organization. I was curious about their experiences, and was glad to see her after 5 months. Fortunately, I came to her in vain. We made some really nice days. I accompanied them in their work and looked at Quito. We were able to have good talks and met more friends, Mathi and Julian, from Hamburg.

to Quito to say that it is huge due to its geographical location. Although it is of population, with Hamburg to compare, but it extends over a length of 50 kilometers. The city has an old and a new center. The new center is Western. Here you can work out well and relatively safe even at night. The old town is related to Cuenca beautiful.

the end, I spent 25 days on the road. Time flies, and so I have brought almost half of my Weltwärts year behind me.

came after three days I return to good again in Pucallpa. I'm looking forward to the next trip, then hopefully back to the camera.
