Hi everyone,

I'm studying right now at La Universidad Catolica in Lima for the semester. Back home, I'm a junior studying at Auburn University with a double major in Anthropology and Spanish. While I've been here in Peru, I have fallen in love with the country. I know I want to come back here to live or study soon, but am quite undecided when and how. I was thinking about doing a Masters program in Lima or possibly just coming to work after I graduate in 2012. Does anyone have any job advice or internship information they could pass along?
I work well with computers and have experience as a data analyst. No retail positions. I also am unsure if I want a degree in Anthropology, but it is possible. I speak Spanish at an Advanced level, but would not consider myself fluent yet.

Thanks!

To work in Peru, you need to obtain a work visa. You can't work here if you have a student or tourist visa.
