I'll give you the highlights of the last week one post at a time.Starting with eating guinea pig. Yes I did it. Last Saturday we sat down to a lovely decorated table at the school where Willy another Peruvian volunteer and Madie the volunteer coordinator had cooked up a delectable feast of guinea pig, potatoes and sauce.
I'll be honest with you. I wasn't particularly looking forward to this meal. It's not like us Aussies make a habit out of eating animals that we usually consider as pets. But I was willing to give it a go, which I did. When I put the idea of eating a cute furry little creature out of my head it was actually quite nice. But then some of the others started eating the head and one even tucked into the brain. It was at this point that I'd had enough.
It was a good experience but I don't know if I'd rush back to eat some cuy again anytime soon.
