04/01 Peru’s National Night

Tonight we had Peru’s National Night presentations. When we woke up, the dinning hall was already all decorated with beautiful pictures from Peru and it’s national colors! Before one the activities, the Peruvian girls started to share a little bit of their home with us by doing the Llama energizer.

For snack, Peru had also prepared a very special piece of their country for everyone. We ate “papa a la huanca’ina” (lettuce, potatoes, boiled eggs, black olives and a special sauce), “turr’on” (a “cake” which’s special ingrediente is honey) and “chich morada” (a drink made by sweet purple corn).

After showing us beautiful vídeos about Peru’s prettiest landscapes and culture, the Peruvian girls danced “Le dije a Papa”, “Anaconda”, “Saya” and “Que linda flor”. After the presentations were over, they taught us how to dance to their home’s happy and energetic songs! Big success! The special touch of Peru’s presentations were their costumes: following our theme in CISV this year (sustainable development), all the girls costumes were handmade by recicled material! Great idea and iniciative!

When asked which part of her National Night she enjoyed the most, Mariel said: “Just everything!”. It’s safe to say that she speaks for all of us! Thanks Peru!!
