This is a picture of Gabriela, Olgie, and me on the steps in SALI. They are two of my favorite students. Gabriela and I decided that we are twins today. She wants to be a lawyer and we both think that Torta Alemana is the best kind of cake in Peru. Lomo soltado is also our favorite Peruvian dish.
This a picture of the professors protesting for higher wages. They have been on strike for a couple of weeks now. Here, the professors go on strike pretty frequently. However, they never get more money. Classes are canceled and students just go on vacation until the professors decide to return. The Peruvian government can't really force them to go back to work so many students just get behind in their school schedule. The protest was kind of funny because all of the professors were divided up into their different departments. It was a lot more organized than I had ever pictured a public protest.
