Primer día en el Lima. Llegamos la noche anterior y dormimos en el CIP (Centro de Investigación de la Papa), donde se trabaja fundamentalmente en el estudio de las muchas variedades de papas nativas de Perú; gran parte de la decoración está basada en motivos relacionados con la papa, como es el caso de los centro de mesa de la zona de comedor. Dedicamos este primer día a planificación de las próximas semanas, reparto de tareas...Merideth (nuestro contacto en este centro) nos enseña las instalaciones, invernaderos y campos destinados al cultivo. En las siguientes fotos aparecen algunos integrantes del grupo en los jardines del CIP, cerca de una planta de jazmín inmensa, olor inconfundible. Probamos la primera de muchas frutas exóticas y nueva al menos para mí: Lucuma; el sabor recuerda a una batata aunque la textura es blanda sin necesidad de cocinarla.
He de decir que el café en el desayuno era excelente; para una malagueña como yo, el sabor de un buen café y el volver a sentir el calor y el sol quemando en esta época del año es realmente agradable.
First day in Lima. We arrived the previous night and slept in CIP (Potato Research Center), where most of the studies are focus on potato native species from Peru; many decoration details are related to potatoes (see dinning-room table in the picture). Merideth (the contact researcher in this institute) gave us a tour through the greenhouses and crop field in the center. In the following pictures we can see some of our group members in the gardens center, next to a huge jazmin plant, unmistakable perfume. We had the opportunity to taste the first exotic fruit of this trip: Lucuma; it tastes like a sweet potato but the texture is soft without requirements to cooking it.
I have to say that the taste of the peruvian coffee in the morning was excellent. For a malagueña person like me, the possibility to drink such a good coffee and the opportunity to feel the hot weather and the sun burning the skin is really nice.
