Celebrate | Father's Day

Happy belated Father's day! [I know this post is a little late, but better late than never! (I am in this crazy, weird and odd scheduling for posting)] 

My new Internship

As many of you may already know, I was struggling so bad with finding some internships and I was trying to figure out what to do with my life now that I had to be a grown up. Well, the day has come where I get to go to an office and do actual stuff. I got my very first internship and I am head over heels about it.

I am now working with an awesome team of people over at the World Trade Center here in Lima, and it is just so nice to get to see how things are done. My first week went great, except for a very funny incident that caused the light to go out for an hour on Friday morning. That will be another story to tell here.

My first task, update the database of chambers of commerce and embassies and call and make sure that all of the data was up to date (duh! that's why it's called "updating" right?).

It is a part-time internship, meaning that the office hours are flexible. And for me, that is the best thing. I will start university again in March so that it is going to be adapted to what my classes require and the demand that they have of my time.

I am so happy to be working there, if you can't already tell, and I will be updating more about this subject soon.

I hope you are having a great week so far and that everything you do give you satisfaction.

Calvin Klein

This post is going to be a little different, I will have a section in Spanish and one in English due to the fact that I have awesome news to my fellow Peruvian (specially the ones living in Lima) friends.

Esto es demasiado nuevo para mi. Creo que es la primera vez que escribo en Español desde que empeze con este blog. Se siente diferente, pero es un sentimiento mas pegado hacia lo bueno e interesante. Hoy les tengo una super noticia a mis amigos y compatriotas Peruanos. Calvin Klein llega a Ripley!

Ellos estan ubicando sus productos en los locales de San Borja (Nuevo Centro Comercial "La Rambla"), Jockey Plaza y Miraflores.

Calvin Klein tiene una tienda en el exclusivo Boulevard del Jockey Plaza, y me parece impresionante que Lima este empezando a ponerse a la altura de las grandes capitales de la moda, empezando por el LIFweek que se hace ya anualmente desde hace dos años y que trae un gran aporte a nuestra sociedad en lo que es cuestion de vestimenta, belleza y grandes tendencias.

Esto me emociona mucho, porque soy Peruana y veo que el país avanza cada dia mas y me hace querer trabajar arduamente para lograr aportar algo, por mas pequeño que parezca, pero de a pocos se puede lograr algo grande.

Wow, writing in spanish is a lot harder than I thought it would be at the moment. I apologize if I've had some grammar mistakes, it's just that my whole life i've been exposed to English and with the globalization issues we have to deal with daily is just easier for me. I don't know why, that's just how I came about.

So Calvin Klein is launching in Ripley and it is huge news! They already have a store in the open boulevard at our big mall and it is so nice to have it more available. I love it, love it, love it!

I hope you enjoy the shopping and go there ASAP!

This side of the globe...

Hey everyone!

So most of you know I live in Peru. Here we have a very diverse weather and it drives me crazy. We are supposed to be in winter right now, but here's the thing, I just don't know how to dress properly for the crazy, hot-cold season. 

I have a love for coats and blazers, those chubby cardigans and sweaters that are awesome for winter. Last year I stocked up with quite a very good variety of them eyeing that this year I'll be able to use them. Well I was wrong up to some point. I can still wear them but with some serious layers going on under them. 

What I do: 

1) A tank top of a solid colour. 

2) A long sleeve blouse, which is a light weight

3) a Cardigan 

4) a coat or a blazer depends on the weather and if whether I  want to be a cosy bear or a more executive like, but warm girl.

Through out the day, the weather is just crazy, at 8 am, it's freezing cold. As the morning goes by, it might be sunny, or it might be somewhat warmer so the coat/blazer is not needed. and in the afternoon we are back to freezing cold and strong cold winds...

Oh! How I love living in such a varied environment (I might prefer all the way cold or all the way hot but not like this!), I might just fly to the Caribbean one of this days, or the North Pole. Which ever is better. 

This is how my days are like in bipolar Lima, Peru. Still it's a lovely place and love how diversity characterizes it (speaking of bipolar! hahaha) 

xo,
