First discoveries

Preparations to the trip are getting interesting as well. Learning the language in extremely short time (thanks heavens for www.duolingo.com). Reading the guide from cover to cover, over and over again. Following the websites and fanpages on Facebook: http://kochamyperu.pl/ (pl) http://peruexpedicion.com (pl) http://www.peruthisweek.com/(en).

I was also searching for some music which turned out not to be so easy. However, I was persistent and I found two lovely things. First one is young indie band from Lima, Kanaku y El Tigre. The guys are joyfully riding along the coast of Lima, sitting on the top of open double-decker. That will be my must-do on the first sunny day in Lima. I hope it will happen soon enough since, according to my guidebook, 300 days a year Lima is foggy with no sun at all.

 

Second piece is a reportage about Afro-Peruvian music from the coast. Though the movie is in Spanish, the music seems to be the universal language.
