If you were by any chance listening to Radio Comas yesterday at around 4pm Peru Time...


...you would have heard me!
We were invited to promote our project (it's quite long so I won't bore you with the details just yet... but   in short the NGO is offering a training for youth to start their own business). The interview was part of a radio program done by young teenagers, so yes, not the most professional and "legit" interview, but STILL. The 2 girls interviewing us were the bubbliest and most grown-up 14 year olds ever, and they asked us a ton of questions on Canada/Quebec: the culture, the food, the climate, etc... We fed them all the typical clichés: how cold it gets, polar bears and beavers, poutine, maple syrup...I explained that football was not THE priority in terms of sport, but instead it was hockey.. which I tried to describe as best one can. Justin Bieber was OBVS playing as background music, as he is (sadly) well-loved here in Peru. After all the chit chat about Canada, the girls started reading out loud unusual little news stories, and they asked me to comment on an affair that had happened in France the other day, about a man who was fired from his job because he had been farting and burping in front of his colleagues. I was like, qué?!

I will post some pictures, and who knows, maybe a video of me failing miserably at spanish, when I get back from Huaraz - we are leaving tonight and coming back next wednesday.

Hasta Pronto chicos!
