In addition to the various projects we undertake throughout our trip, we also have a unique opportunity to immerse ourselves in many cultural experiences.

While spending a substantial amount of time in the rural countryside of Huanuscuro (or as we simply call it, "the campo") during our past three trips, we've been constantly conscious of the relationship we cultivate with the local people. Aware that we're outsiders encroaching on their land and disrupting their demanding daily routine, we've taken particular caution while establishing our presence in the community.

Although teaching is never the main focus of our trip, we all agree that exposing Peruvian children to a culture apart from their own (at the very least) and gaining knowledge of the English language (our ultimate goal) is time well spent.
This year, Dr. Ivan suggested that we visit a new boarding school – where Peruvian children advanced in learning are specially placed in – to consider teaching there.

Between changes in membership, various fundraising efforts, a gradual shift in identity, and constantly evolving methods to help our Peruvian friends, it seems like Project Suyana is an ever-changing entity. But above all this, there remains one constant – a summer trip to Puno.
