Culture, food, and music!!

Wednesday, March 6, 2019

After a hot day of work, we have the chance to stop by the kiosks in Luquillo, PR. Some of the vendors sold authentic Puerto Rican food, such as al capurrias, arepas, tostones, chicharrĂ³n, and many more. However, the number one dish students purchased was monfongo, which is a mashed plantains baseb dish mixed in with your meat of choice, in our case pork, and vegetables. Other vendors sold fruit and dessert smoothies. Ronni got a delicious dessert smoothie with Nutella, chocolate wafers, and and Oreo. In addition, there were some vendors that sold artisan, handmade items. TJ bought a beautiful and very colorful bag that he could carry extra items with him. The music was playing at every kiosk! The music was so upbeat and we danced down the street, saying hello to all of the people in Luquillo and just having a wonderful time. This day was Paulina and Ronni’s favorite day of the trip so far; being able to help people and also have a little fun!
