Hello.
We are back in Cusco after renewing our stamp and
crossing the border (twice) into Bolivia to visit the
islands on Lake
Titicaca. I lost my Peruvian immigration card and didn't
get an exit
stamp from that country so the Bolivians sent me back
($5 fixed
the problem with minimal time and inconvenience). Dee
got
through easily, with a cheery shout of "Ireland for
the Irish" from
the border official.
We
hung around Copacabana, a laid back lakeside town popular
with ageing hippies, before hiking across the Isla del
Sol. The
guidebook states that the walk across the mountainous
island
should take three hours but we, as usual, took longer
and ended
wandering in the dark with failing torch batteries, chasing
dropped
apples and giggling, until we were rescued by small boys.
Puno,
back in Peru, provided the base for visiting Taquille
and the
floating Uros Islands; made of reed and springy to walk
on. Then,
after a few days reunion with Mr Benn in Cusco, we took
off to the
jungle town of Quillabamba, ate lots of cakes and ice
cream, got
savaged by insects (tip: spray repellent, don't count
them) and
hitched lifts on trucks.
In
between, we managed to get some work done and finish the
Latin America Supplement that we promised an issue or
two ago.
Next month we should be back in Bolivia, to La Paz, before
deciding whether to head for Argentina or Chile.
Adios,
Shane & Deirdre.

Work Experience
Our
volunteers work in groups, based in the tree-lined, sunny
capital of Accra. Teaching English is aside from getting
involved
with arts, music, crafts and sports, and is as hectic
as seeing to the
needs of 400 patients a day as part of a medical student's
placement. On a Media i-Venture, programming and news
reporting are as fulfilling as hitting the streets to
interview the
public about their views.

Armed
with merely a chalkboard and a few books, our volunteers
teach English to the needy adults and children of Sri

Others work with a grassroots network to develop Eco-tourism

the

What is the International Work Brigade? The International
Work
Brigade consists of groups from the solidarity organisations
of
several Northern European countries. Members of the Brigade
(Brigadistas) live for three weeks on a purpose-built
camp near
Havana where they carry out agricultural or construction
work
alongside Cubans. The brigade provides a unique opportunity
to
experience the Cuban Revolution at first hand and show,
practically, that Cuba is not alone.
Brigadistas
also take part in a full programme of activities including
educational and political events and visits to factories,
hospitals,
trade unions, schools etc. Entertainment is provided at
the camp

organised.
Who

from all
backgrounds, ethnic groups, ages and from different parts
of
Britain. Brigadistas must be able to work co-operatively
under
sometimes pressured conditions and should be prepared
to
undertake some solidarity work for Cuba on their return.
What
does it cost? The cost of the trip will be around £850.
This
covers your air fare, food, accommodation costs and some
visits.
You will need spending money and money to cover the costs
of
optional excursions. Some Brigadistas raise funds for
their trip by
approaching their trade union, political party or other
organisations.
Local CSC groups may also be able to offer you help and
advice
on fund-raising for your trip.
How
do I apply? CSC organises brigades in the Summer and
Winter. A 'preparation weekend' takes place at least two
months
before you leave. This gives you the opportunity to meet
brigadistas both old and new, and to share experiences
of brigade
life. If you wish to apply for a place on the next brigade
then please
send an SAE to the address below. An application form
with the
dates of the next brigade will then be sent to you. This
