Half way through my last week in Lima!!

In school today we discussed some new topics. We got to learn a little bit about the Peruvian government. Today's class was interesting because I got to hear everyone's side or view on their political stance.

After class, we went to UNIFE. Today we had to do our presentations on the topics that were given to our designated groups. My topic was on the Shanty Towns of Peru. This topic was quite fascinating because I got to learn about the ridiculous divide between the rich and the poor in Peru. In these Shanty Towns, almost all of them have no electricity, sewage, or running water. I was truly struck by this and really enjoyed giving my presentation. The best part about the presentation was that it was in Spanish. I really enjoyed this.
