Links to entertain you while I think of something good to write

Buenos Dias!!! Hello all! So I have to confess that I can't think of anything good to write about right now, so while I wait for inspiration to hit I thought I would share with you all a few links of interest.


This first one is a music video of a song called The Price of Silence, which commemorates the 60th Anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. The artists featured in the video are from all around the world and sing in many different languages, but the message is the same from each one - Now is the time to take action and make the Universal Declaration of Human Rights a reality for all people, in all nations, of all religions, genders, and races.


Now here are the links to some of the groups/organizations that I work for and with
The Joining Hands Network - Paz y Esperanza is one of the socios in the network and all the YAVs are placed within the Joining Hands Network. Check out the newsletter, the Podcast, and just catch up all the happenings and news in Peru.
Bridge of Hope - Fair Trade branch of the JHN. I know Christmas is over, but still take some time to browse the really beautiful high quality products made by small groups of artisans right here in Peru who rely on the sale of these products.
Paz Y Esperanza - Web site for the organization I work for.


Now here's some websites that keep me entertained and really have nothing to do with Peru or what I'm doing here. Enjoy the pure fun and silliness.
Average Wizard - You've heard of My Life is Average, now enjoy Average Wizard!
Post Secret - I'm just obsessed with this website and the books. If you don't know what this is, just click on the link, because I can not even describe it's awesomeness.
Skype - If you don't already have a skype account and you want to talk to me, this is the best way through Skype, basically an internet phone service, where you can place calls from your computer for free!


Ok so I'm going to go brainstorm things I can write for my next post. Enjoy these links and I hope everyone is doing well!!
