Educating in an election campaign

Every sunday some friends and I go to each district of Trujillo to guide about this election campaign, how to vote and what are the roles of the major. We have some games and spaces where people can say or write what is the most important for their district... This sunday is election day, we hope people can express a conscious vote, most of the time people prefer to hear promises which are not sure to be reality.

Inca Kola

Inca Kola, the most representative soda in Peru, all peruvians prefer!!!. Coca Cola Company bought it but Inca Kola is called as "soda with national flavour"... it's a long story for a soda.
