The
UVa Program in Perú has
a long tradition of offering visiting students from the United States
the
opportunity to live with Peruvian families. The Ruiz’s Office of
International
Relations, together with the program’s resident staff, is responsible
for
administering its home-stay program. Participants in the University of
Virginia
Program in Perú will live with families of Universidad Ruiz de
Montoya students,
staff, and faculty members, as well as other specially selected homes.
With the
exception of lunches when they are at the Ruiz, they will take their
meals with
the sponsoring families. During the week they will usually take lunch
in the
student cafeteria on the campus of the Universidad Antonio Ruiz de
Montoya
using student meal-plan tickets. In addition, the program includes
occasional
group lunches and/or dinners at out-of-the-way places, in order to
provide
students with the opportunity to try cuisine from various regions of
Perú.
Students will also have the opportunity to sample local cuisine on
their own in
the numerous restaurants of Lima, recognized as one of the gastronomic
capitals
of the world.
