My new "neighbour"

I heard him calling already for a few days, and suddenly one late afternoon I spotted him..... in a tree, right in front of my window of my apartment.
People told me that it is very rare to see an owl here in Tarija, let alone, in the middle of the city. 
Here is my new "neighbor"

Dinner with friends

Last Saturday night, I had dinner with some of my friends. Christian and his wife Monica, Merieke and her husband Luis, Mauricio and his wife Veronica.
I cooked chicken, sate, babi bangang, stir fried vegetables and noodles. Afterwards we played yenga.
It was a very nice night, and since everyone liked it so much, we now will have once a month a dinner together, rotating.

In the background on the wall, you can see a black and white landscape photo of Venlo (my home town) from the 1930's (a gift from my dear friend Angelie).
