There has been forced labor in Peru since the beginning of the Inca conquests.

This line verbalizes a sense of nostalgia that the speaker has‚ as well as a sense of determination not to look back at the same time; this is quite interesting and could only be the result of meticulously chosen words.

There was also concern for the environment and strong ethnic influences. Men’s fashion adopted a look that would have been considered too feminine a few

She talks about how her grandmother was currently in the hospital dying‚ while she recounts old memories of her grandmother waiting for her at school when she was little.
