The life of my student!

Dinner (Cena):
In Peru, people don’t usually eat a large dinner. Instead, they have something called lonche, which is more like a light evening snack. Gimena usually has bread with an egg and a cup of coffee.

What is your house like?:

Gimena’s house has three stories, and on the first floor, her aunt runs a small bar where she sells drinks. The house has three bathrooms, a kitchen, a living room, and even a guest room. Gimena has her own bedroom, and just outside, there’s a pig living in the yard!

What chores do you have at home?:

Gimena’s chores include cleaning her room, helping tidy up around the house, and making sure she finishes her homework!
