Laura
One of the things that is impacting me in Medellin, is the relationship almost immediately for most people between Peru and Laura Bozzo, almost as if they were synonyms. Now I fall note that while glued to my chair and looked reveía Seinfeld in Colombia viewers who enjoyed the antenna "Perúbólica" as they call it, would fill his imagination of the unforgettable scenes that counsel gave.
few days ago, when I went to meet The Jíkara art space in the neighborhood of Castile, had a dialogue with a sales impact of salchipapas and "sardines" that accompanied it, receiving one of the weirdest compliments ever I've heard. A boy, about 15 years, after learning that he was Peruvian, he said: "I thought that Peru had no pretty girls, excuse me, but you're the first I see." He added, "believed they were all as coming out in Laura. " The saleswoman, who was kind, cheerful and even used my body to show how to dance reggaeton in Medellín (pretty much like in Lima, of course, so you can imagine the hilarity of the situation), I had to check mathematical proofs veritas that if all Peruvians were no donkeys, as she concluded after seeing the program repeatedly.
And a new friend, artist from Bogotá, we wondered if it was true that people in Peru was spent living and fighting in broods all day, showing that the accomplice of the dictatorship distorted not only foreign ideas about the way we communicate if also transformed the activity of the brood into something ominous and frightening, completely away from its character as meeting and fellowship space, and indeed self-management related to the economic integration of migrants in the capital.
Another prejudice is widespread acceptance as truth of the goodness of Peruvian food, which many call here "the best in the world", even without having tried. And Miguel commented that it seemed odd that, since then wondered if people thought that all this wonderful food was made in SANGUCHEROS carts, as the legacy of Laura in America could suggest.
