BEFORE COMMENTING: PLEASE read the whole piece, not just the headline. I'm fed up of getting abusive emails by people who misunderstand my point. Sigh.

I'll say I'm not the proudest "viva el peru carajo" guy I always take a hard edge when it comes to giving opinions about my country, no one gets to choose where to be born. I'm living in the first world now and yeah Peru IS a third world country and yes it will bring u all the things mentioned in this article (maybe not the food is fing good, give it some time and it will be the best). Peru is a place you learn to love, like a bad marriage, it takes time to get used to but you do it for the good, so don't bash it if you've never been there first worlders you people are lucky to be able to judge the lower level, so don't push it but now Peru ir rising rapidly and will not be the same as it is for now, so enjoy it while you can, sooner than u think it WILL become part of the first world and then bye bye exotic backpacker country. Don't believe me, read the news. I stumbled with this post while looking for some outside opinions about Peru since I’m no longer living there, 23 year old peruvian here.

Have you even given the though that you were in a bad part of Peru? Like the center of L.A. You get robbed there too. EVERY country has it's bad parts. So for you to be going around calling Peru ugly and judging it is VERY childish. I have been to Peru and plan on going back since it was beautiful and the peeople there are very friendly. They gave me this fruit there it was delicious. Oh and they gave it to me for free. The kids there are always smiling playing their games. Maybe YOU are ugly. At least on the inside. Very immature of you. sincerely, annoyed Peruvian tourist P.S- Please don't write back to me, wait of time. Honestly Wow, you are very ignoramt.
