The main language spoken in Cajamarca is Spanish. Each region of Peru speaks Spanish a little bit differently!
The money used in Peru is called Soles. People use a lot of coins, and the bills are very colorful!
A bottle of water costs one and a half Soles. One US dollar is equal to three and a half Soles, so a bottle of water costs about forty cents!
Yesterday for lunch I ate papa rellenas. It is a potato that is fried and then stuffed with chicken. It's one of my favorite foods in Peru!
In Peru, people listen to two main types of music: cumbia and huayno. Both types of music are for dancing, and during parties, people dance a lot!
My favorite activity this week was going on a hike with my host sisters. They had a lot of fun picking up random plants and animals and showing them to me.
