pollada y maracuya sour

Yesterday morning, I bought a pollada for s/ 6 ($2). A pollada is a dish that consists of chicken, potato (of course), and salad. It is the typical way to fundraise in poor communities. My donation will fund an operation to remove a breast tumor in a 20-year-old woman.

Yesterday night, I went to a posh bar to celebrate the birthday of a new acquaintance. I spent s/ 70 ($23) for exotic drinks and fancy sounding appetizers.
