Presents for the locals

Thanks to Aston Villa Football Club we'll be able to hand out pens, badges and signed team photos to people we meet on the journey. I received a sensible sized package at the weekend, which I should be able to squeeze into the rucksack. Many Peruvians will remember their hero Nolberto Solano playing for the club, so there should already be a bit of an affinity, which we look to build upon on the trip. Its nice to have something to give, however small, when being a guest in a country.
