With the Davidsons already in Lima, and the rest of us in various stages of still working to get there, I think it has left the rest of us wondering and imagining life in Lima all the more. If you were to try to explain one day in the life of a major city that you know in just a few minutes, where would you start? Downtown? The suburbs? The projects in a dangerous neighborhood or maybe an upscale luxury part of town? All of these would tell part of the story, all equally as important, but you could never get a complete picture. Even so, I found the following video recently. It’s titled “Huk Panchaw,” which is “One Day” in the second official language of Peru, Quechua. This video captures at least a small part of one day in the life of the city of kings, Lima, Perú. This certainly isn’t what our life will look like in Peru from day to day, but I found it well done and fascinating.
