There was an article very recently in the local paper here in peru.
In a nutshell, it said, (Peru) economically we grow: but we are still a very fractured society and there is little sense of a shared community and we quickly take battle positions with each at the first sign of conflict. We have not tended our nation with sufficient care to enable a shared fabric to exist.
A lot of the cultural experiences that you will have in Peru will be informed by that observation of a peruvian journalist.
in 2015.
but as a gringo you can experience a genuine warmth and a sharp sense of humour on a daily basis.
