Welcome to the inaugural post of Lisa's travel Latin America blog! As stated, our purpose here is to entertain, inform, and let a certain Ms. Barbara Swain know that her daughter has not been captured by radical vegan pygmies.
I haven't left yet (3:24 today), so there's not a lot to say. So instead, I will post a picture of the fake engagement ring I bought yesterday to stave off those tricksy, persistent males. Yet not so designed to fit my finger. Darn you, cheap target rhinestones.
Interesting tidbit: Even if you say you're not interested, that you have a boyfriend, that you are actually an alien hoard intent on sterilizing all Peruvian men, etc., most guys will still keep at it indefinitely. Even being married doesn't work. Heck, half the time, they'll respond, "Me too!" However, one book recommended a failsafe to stave these guys off: Engagement. Apparently, unlike a long term marriage, being engaged means that you're "still deeply in love and will respect it, occasionally even protecting the woman from other advances."
So, anyone want to be my fake finance?
