The warmth that the people of Peru gave me is something that I will always hold close to my heart. If you get this much respect as a stranger, I can imagine the care you get when you are their loved one. Be it the Minister of Tourism whom I met at the Peru fashion show or a shopkeeper in the local market, everyone greeted me with so much of affectation that it fills me with gratitude even now”.
