wow,nice,i love that.
hw is the social life in peru?

Well, I think it's like in Western countries, some people are easier to get, others not so much and others better be away from them. Society here has changed from traditional to modern in a few years, but if it retains classism. Women here have many more rights than men, most people agree with gays and things like the first world.

I take this post to talk some more about my country and my culture. In this case I want to talk about Peruvian food, besides that I have direct descent from great-grandfather, here it is said to be one of the best, but I see it more as a romance of our culture, but you could say that is a combination of European, Asian and African culture, It is contributing to have a different flavor to the rest.

As I'm in an African forum, I will talk about our influence of African culture, thanks to it we can enjoy good quality dishes like Anticucho, carapulcra, sangresita, choncholí, chanfainita, etc. Do not think that these dishes were made by specialists chef or anything, it was done by African slaves cooks who came to Peru. Most African influence is located on the coast of Peru in areas such as Lima, Lambayeque and especially in Ica. When was the liberation of African slavery, contributed to our cuisine more sophisticated dishes such as tamales and desserts such as turron Doña Pepa

I will illustrate with pictures

how did u learn how to speak english

In Peru and elsewhere in South America, English is an obligatory subject, we learn American English, unlike you who speak with British accent. But I do not speak it very well, is difficult for me and for majority of peruvians to pass from Español to English

wildchild1:
But unfortunately for most of the Peruvian population Nigeria it represents only a negroes country.

Pls explain the above statement further.. thanks
Welcome btw

This means that only see Nigeria as a country where african people live, they do not look beyond it, they don´t know much about the country. However, this changing slowly, lately Peruvian newspapers mentioned Nigeria as Africa's potency, but other times the mentioned the problems of Nigeria with Boko Haram.

tellwisdom:
Guy, how do you see Nigerians? Good or bad?.. No whine me oo

Well, for people who study and inform like me, the vision of the country is relatively good despite the difficulties we hear about Boko haram or problems with the economy. There Peruvian companies like Ajegroup, they have the Big Cola, they view Nigeria as a potential market for your economy and growing population.But unfortunately for most of the Peruvian population Nigeria it represents only a negroes country.

Grondona was the one who handled all financial matters of Blatter, once he died it seems that the blatter's house of cards is collapsing.

So bad for Argentina, they have good players, but Grondona is not a coach, only he is there for the hand of his father Julio Grondona

Nice to meet you, Desa.

How's sexual education in Peru? Is sex also a taboo topic like in Nigeria? Do young girls freely engage in sexual activities without being burdened down by society?

Well friend, in schools there is no sex education, it doesn´t teach it.But on television and on the street put adevertising as the use of condoms for not pregnant, whether you are trying to imitate the model of Western countries. Here in Peru, is no longer a taboo, it ceased to be from the 2000s, is very shocking to those born in the 80s, because we crashed to the tradition and modernity.

The other point of women is that they have a lot of freedom to do whatever they want, it's almost like the western countries, they can work on anything, and sexualde also have freedom to choose, and if possible to get you the horns without you you can touch a hair. Do not know if this is better, but our birth rate is decreasing at an alarming rate, we will soon be like the Western countries with an old population.

^ its been established you're white- lets move on from there.

you don't have to keep repeating it every so often, lolz.


are you fishing for compliments?

I see those black mestizos are really black.

Yes those are from our national football tema, but they´re really bad, we have good players with talent, but they don´t exploit, they go to Europe but they don´t get to stay there, so they come back for our terrible football.

Come on Nigerians friends ask me more questions, we could exchange more information about our tendencies, cultures, society or realitys

tpiadotcom:
cool, you already explained about mestizo.


yes, you're white, I don't think there are a lot of blacks over there.

I´m White Mestizo like him

tpiadotcom:

I identify more with mestizo people, becuase I´ve grown up with them, but I´m White, but I´m not like as European people.

indiraserv:
Oooh PERU!
That's one of my dream countries to visit ,heard a lot about your spirituality,the vortex there and the Incas
Nice to meet you !

Yes you can visit, because is not very difficult to enter here, especially if you are a tourist.
There is not much spirituality here, only christianity, but it has decreased its number of followers, other religions are followed by tribes that are remote from civilization. When spaniard came to america they impose the christianity.

Nice to meet you too

tpiadotcom:
I meant to say Brazil, kudos on the correction.


are you of Indian descent? (from your user id).

btw how far is your Portuguese ancestry?

Yes I have indian and negroe descent, but I'm white, I have somefeatures that expose me like the face and the hair.

my great-grandfather is portuguese, but only him, the rest of my ancestors are spaniard, indian,and negroe

tpiadotcom:
do you speak Portuguese like the rest of South America?

Spanish amigo, I have portuguese descent but is very far. Only brazilians talk portuguese, the rest talk spanish or español

tpiadotcom:
Spanish as in Spain?

Yes Spanish but I think is spaniard in english

elijah2u:
what is the total population of Peru and is there any resources that makes you stand out in the comity of nations?

We are 30 millions and we are recognized for our food, there are many foods that have African influences, one is choncholi ( is the guts of the cow) another is chanfainita ( are the lungs of the cow or chicken)

goofyone:
That's interesting to know!

More questions: Are jobs in the Peruvian oil & gas industry hugely attractive to the people? I have a friend who was recruited by a servicing company in Lima, and was sent to work in Ecuador. He didn't really like the job. Is this normal among you guys?

Actually I tell you that even that sector is starting but is growing, the industry is good for work is the construction sector

davades:
So what question do I ask now? Who introduce you to this site?

I saw this forum by a Spanish forum which they are touching the theme of the arrival of many Africans to Europe

goofyone:
How do Peruvians regard Franciso Pizarro and his so-called conquest of Peru? Do Peruvians feel a relationship with Atahualpa?

It´s considered bad for the mid and lower social class, but for the high class it was great because they are lineal descendant, previously he had an estatue but it was destroyed. There is no relationship with Atahualpa because the incas doesn´t exist anymore, the majority of the people is mestizo (White with indians), another is indigenous ( but other tribes different of the incas), and some whites (pures) negroes and chinese people

dkronicle:
Inkax3 efpee

There is no much inkas here, there is more mestizos

indiraserv:
