To everyone at No.1 Travel--
I want to give my thanks for the opportunity of an internship for these past two weeks. I know I was a little difficult at times, but I feel I have learned a little about the Japanese business world. Thank you for what you have taught me so far. I am very grateful for all the help I received from everyone in the office. Everyone was very nice and considerate.
Many Thanks, SAT

Peru: Land of the Incas
Have you ever been to Peru?
Do you know what Peru is famous for?
First and formost, Peru is known for the Incas and the peoples that preceeded them. Peru is a lush country with different types of topography. It some places it is all mountains and hills. And in others it is desert and ocean. One of the best known tourist sites is Machu Picchu. The Nazca Lines also are must see. The people of Peru are loving people always welcoming visitors. Peruvians speak primarily Spanish. However, the older generations speak Quechua (Ke Choo Wa), which was the language of the Incas. Some Peruvians also speak Aymara (Ai Mar A), which is older than Quechua. Peruvians are a people of tradition and culture that spans many generations back to the Incas. You can see this everywhere. A high percentage of Peruvians are Catholic. Along with this, they keep the healing traditions of the their ancestors alive. One of the major draws to Peru is the possibility of working one of these mystics. The best time to go is late April until August because the weather is perfect. July is also the time of Inti Raymi (In T Ray Me), which is the Celebration of the Sun Goddess.
Here are some fun facts about Peru:
*The Amazon is a part of Peru. (Good place to have some adventure)
*There are a 1000 kinds of Sweet Potatoes with different colors and sizes. (everything from yellow to purple and nickel size to the size of two fists put together)

*Chincha is the natural drink (Corn Beer)
*Cuye (KU II) is the national food (IT was eaten by the Inca Kings)(It is Guinea Pig by the way)
