boda

A few weeks ago I went to a wedding with a fellow Peace Corps volunteer, Javier. One of his neighbors in his site was getting married and invited Javi to the wedding. It was really fun; Peruvians definitely like to party.

It was especially interesting to experience this wedding because I felt like I was in a completely different country than where I live in the mountains. Javi’s site, Moche, is on the coast where the people are lively and open. Also this wedding, in particular, was with fairly wealthy Peruvians. I don’t ever get to experience this sort of lifestyle in the mountains, so it fun to have a cultural change.
