Pocketing Peru, Travel Tribe Culture Series




Pocketing Peru, Travel Tribe Culture Series

Welcome to the Travel Tribe Culture Series course on Peru!

In this dynamic, fast-paced course, we will explore the history, language, food, culture, traditions, celebrations, geography, animals and famous sites of Peru. The course then dives into the construction, history and fun facts about one of the Seven Wonders of the Modern World, Machu Picchu.

Students explore local traditions and fun facts that shape this country into the exciting and dynamic place that it is today. Students discover the major cities, learn how to fit in like a local, and check out what to explore in each city (Lima & Cusco), and how to make the most of Peru if you're only in town for a few days.

Whether you are planning for a post-Covid vacation, wanting a virtual adventure, or planning your next long-term-digital-nomad destination, this course is for you!


Some of the fun-fact topics we will explore:

  • What influence did the Inca Empire have on Peru?

  • What is the Peruvian national dish (Cuy), and would you try it?

  • Which Peruvian fruits would you want to eat? (And how much is too much of a dragon fruit, as a tourist?)

  • Why are alpacas so important to the people of Peru?

  • Where does the name Peru come from?

  • What are the main languages of Peru?

  • What is the boiling river? Is it really that hot?

Travel Journal

As the saying goes, "Traveling makes you speechless, and then makes you a storyteller." In this course, you will be prompted to answer questions similar to the prompts above in your Travel Journal, in order to further your understanding and curiosity about each aspect of Peru that we explore in this course.


Adult Coloring Pages

There are some (optional) adult coloring pages that coordinate with the lectures, so grab some colored pencils! Feel free to share your artwork with the class.
