Peru

Comparison to Canada

Canada has traditions such as Indigenous Pow Wows, the yearly Calgary stampede in July, and the “famous” Canadian dish Poutine. Peru has Ceviche which is a cold cooked fish marinated in Lime, lemon, and orange juice, which is topped with thinly cut onions.

Canada has created some important sports in the world such as, Hockey, Basketball, Lacrosse and some more. Peru hasn’t created any sports but the most played is soccer, or football (what they call it)

There are great landmarks and attractions in Canada such as the Hockey Hall of Fame in Toronto Ontario, CN Tower Toronto Ontario, The Northern Lights in Yellowknife North west territories, and at lest 27 more. Peru has the Machu Picchu Ruins and their cities.

Special holidays are very cherished here in canada and some of them are the National Flag day which is celebrated during February 15. Peru has many holidays such as Saint Rose of Lima, Immaculate Conception day, and Perus independence day.

Canada doesn’t have a specialty in music but most of the country listens to a wide variety of music usually being Pop songs, Rock songs, or Rap. Peruvians like to listen to Cumbia music, Salsa music or Huayno style.

Core Competency Reflection

I am able to consider and look at different websites, to see what facts match up or lead towards not being true. This helped me really go and dig deeper into this project, and actually want to find true facts/statements for my project to be the best it can be.

I am able to inquire on different present topics to make sure all of information is up to date and cover all topics of conversation.

I take on responsibility and roles that need to be done in a group, examples of this are making the script for the statements, and facts I put on my poster board. I also printed the script and pasted all of the information I gathered for the project and my teammates, so we could present our project.

I work towards gathering present and important information for my project that could affect a traveler’s interest in going somewhere new or where they might want to go differently in the country.
