I trust you´ve seen at least a few images of the earthquake affected areas in Peru´s south. The reporting here has been incredibly Lima centric, largely ignoring the fact that much of the southern pueblos are built of mud (adobe brick), ON sand, and as they´ve just started reporting now, areas such as Pisco are 85% destroyed. ¡Increíble! And a little bit sensationalist ....of course, not everywhere has access to the same pixt-in-a-news-story technology of upmarket Miraflores.The photo on the left is from the third story, well, the roof, of the hostel in which I spent almost a week in Pisco. It might help to aid your imagination when viewing further footage.
Right now I´m happy in Cali, Colombia, and looking at the state of the roads from Lima, not rushing south any time soom to use the remaining months of my Argentinian working visa. Besides, there´s a Pacific music festival going on right now and I´m too busy representing the south side. Much love and marimba madness.
