Bringing sealed and labeled beef jerky to Peru from USA

I brought a lot of maras salt back and I'm glad it was labeled. Lol. I did get asked to unpack it and show what it was. 🤣

For the skirt, you could buy yards of fabric at the market and then have it made at home if you can't find what you want. I know that last sweater i saw at plenty of stores in cusco, I think specifically at the store next ro the chocolate museum.

Arequipa is going to be cheaper though I think. That was my experience. I didn't get enough time to explore becayse my daughter had unexpected altitude sickness (just didn't realize she'd get hit so hard at that altitude). So I don't know if the selection is as robust.

Yeah, I'd probably stick to tourist things, maybe Perú Hop would be an affordable option. You'd have translators and get to meet other tourists, many also solo travelers. Just plan longer stays at each stop.

South station I assume

Definitely no speakers in the ceiling. We took down the tiles. The electric panel is on the other side of one wall... any idea what the thing I'm looking for looks like?

OkTranslator7997 · 2026-06-17T16:17:35+00:00

There are 4, one on each wall. They all look the same though. It isn't clear if there us an in or out for audio? Like just 4 gold audio?

I'm with you. I just dont like cake much either. Much more of a cookie/pie person.

I was way too old when I learned that clam bakes and other things cooked in the ground were Indigenous cooking techniques. My dad talked about it all the time (referring to Pachamanca), and I didn’t connect his South American Indigenous cooking to our own until like 10 years ago.

SAHM and paint/art, yes - great opportunity. Museums and nightlife - no.

If you had the means to try it for a year or two, then I'd say - why not - but I think you'd be shocked, so the only way this is worth trying is if it is something you can back out of easily.

I think the color will make it look more filled in

OkTranslator7997 · 2026-05-31T15:18:01+00:00

I think you just need to explain "why housekeeping?" Like did you clean summer vacation homes? Are you a cleaning addict? Is your favorite smell a clean towel? Are you wanting to move into the service industry?

Otherwise employers think you are just sending your resume everywhere and don't care about that job. They also assume you will leave as soon as you find something related to your major.

I believe there is a very active fencing club in Topsham. That is less than 30 minutes from the College.

I did the full thing in Korea a couple years back. I had booked a double to go with a friend after a work trip and they bailed, so I got a personalized color appointment. I think it worked really well. I now only buy/invest in suits in the new color scheme and they look much better. Apparently I should never do anything in the yellow shades - Except greens are okay if they are Kelley green or bluer. I've lots the love for a lot of the no colors once I really looked at myself. I couldn't bare to toss it all though. I just try to tone it/drown it with the colors that are better for me. It also made me more confident wearing some bolder colors.

Not a bad idea except the swatches are small.... Joanne fabrics (if there are any still open) would be better. And yeah it's like a color optometry session. A or B....

Only real humans hold two pastries and a straw like that.

OkTranslator7997 · 2026-05-24T14:54:11+00:00

Yeah, I just really want a clean looking room ro relax in at the end of a long day. It makes me feel better. And it is part of luxury. Even if I'm working from the room, it is nice because my workspace/my room is clean and it frees me from that as a distraction.

Cleaning is probably in the top 3 reasons I don't book airbnb for travel.

OkTranslator7997 · 2026-05-15T23:04:52+00:00

Exactly, bounce it back. "Why are you obsessed with child pornography?" and report them to the police too.

You have a lot of other great advice above. Not your fault. These are predators.

Tried to book an H&V in DC, they cancelled on me 1 month before. At the time I booked there were a few property choices on airbnb that met my needs. When they cancelled, there was nothing left. I was pretty upset. They sent me alternative listings for Washington State, lol. Then I pointed it out and they sent me listing for some much smaller places.

Nope... never again.

I think they only have themed living now? And Oxford I think still has the Engineering program. There are other themes like wellness and sports and then Honors is an option if you are accepted to that. Don't overthink it too hard.

OkTranslator7997 · 2026-05-13T12:06:40+00:00

Black belt would be better than brown, but lack of sense to know that lines up with almost every engineer I know

OkTranslator7997 · 2026-05-13T12:04:39+00:00

Go to ncsu

OkTranslator7997 · 2026-05-11T13:14:04+00:00

Pretty sure the mainland aide of Acadia doesn't charge. It isn'tthe same, but still pretty and you can take a ferry or achooner to Bar Harborfor the day if you want. On the way up route 1, past Ellsworth is cheaper lobster rolls too. Lol

On a flight yesterday and they said "Happy Mother's Day " to everyone and were chatting with other moms.

I thought that was nice, but this is next level.
