Family in Piura
This morning, Jessica, Michael and I took a mototaxi to a village in Piura to interview families for our health study. We left Santisimo Sacramento with the goal of interviewing three families at the village. By the end of the day, we had spoken with more than twenty families about their recent experiences with illness and disease and their perceptions on health care and mental health. I was fascinated by their views on these subjects, and I can't wait to interview more families tomorrow. I took a lot of pictures today, and I posted a few of them below. I hope you enjoy them!

Matt is explaining to Michael an interesting aspect of health care in Peru. Even though Jessica and Michael are fluent in Spanish and I try my best, Matt was very helpful in translating our questions so that they could be understood by the family members.
