OLO

The biggest adventure of my life so far has ended. I came back home from Peru. I traveled for around 27 hours, passed 6 time zones.

I'm experiencing a jet lag. It's 7 am, and I'm still awake. It would be just 1 am in Lima. Wikipedia says, that sometimes skipping sleep at all can help to recover fast. I will see. So far I haven't slept much in last two nights, because of flight and goodbye party on Wednesday- see previous posts (as soon as I get them updated).

Monday

Went to my old workplace. I wanted to see my boss to give him back the books for Spanish. And he told me about the Christmas dinner at reastaurant in the evening.
I didn't miss last chance to see my coworkers and say goodbye. Especially, that food was great (it was some oriental chinese-or-something restaurant). The amazing thing was, although I was sitting at Spanish speaking table, I was talking with people all time. In Spanish!

Tuesday

Trainee dinner.
My "last supper" with my friends in Lima. We were 12 foreigners, everybody prepared something from their country. I prepared ruskie pierogi. This was good idea, but next time I will know what to do to make them better. See some of the pictures here. And read more about on Szymon's blog.

Wednesday

Goodbye party.
That was my last party in Pipas. Last and unforgetable, with all my friends present. Most of them signed my shirt, that I got from Sandra (see below). Thank you all for being there!

This Tuesday was event that everybody in my company was waiting for. Demonstration of Unexos switch at Banco Continental.
The application, that I was working on was used for this demonstration – front-end was preparing the transaction data and sending it to the switch, on the other end few host applications were connecting to MySQL database and returning whatever you would need. At least in theory. But Murphy’s law are in effect, and sometimes something goes wrong.

Now it’s over. I must make documentation of the system. Also there is another program that I worked with, which bugs have to be fixed. And that would be all!

And then, if I finish that, I will have two weeks to travel around Peru.
