First Day in Peru!!

Our bloggers today are Keegan D'Souza, a second year Criminal Justice Degree student, and Olivia Johnston, a second year Child and Youth Care Degree, student.

We arrived in Peru early this morning around 5am, and got to Monica's place safely. We quickly settled because we had to get as much rest as we could for the morning. After a brief orientation with our facilitators Lawrence and Flauvia, we had a delicious lunch of rice, chicken, and salad. After lunch we took to the streets of Barranco to explore and complete a scavenger hunt created by our facilitators. The scavenger hunt definitely helped us get familiar with the area and know our way around on our own. We are all very excited for the days to come, and the experiences that await us.
