In the case of Cameron Diaz we find this American actress traveling through different countries without the slightest understanding of their political and cultural make up. The fact that she apologized to peruvians for carrying a bag with the quote "serve the people" by the late Chinese Chairman Mao Zedong is ridiculous. Why would she have to apologize in the first place? Mao Zedong's quote does not mean Ms. Diaz supports the Shinning Path and only that she is ignorant and does not value anyone's culture except as a commodity be it in China, the US or Peru. Peru does not need ignorant tourists coming and acting as they need to save our culture or country. What we need in Peru is to really make changes ourselves and stop selling our country.

She has done all 3, and now this!! Egad!!!Over these days, we have enjoyed dozens of photographs of her learning about our culture, enjoying our food and even sharing hugs and kisses (our style of greeting people) with guides, fans, and people who have surely never seen one of here movies (or any movie for that matter!!).We have been very glad to have her visit. Hope she comes back soon to enjoy more.From here in Peru I looked for and and have found NO scandal, NO outrage, NO ANYTHING “negative” about the recent and INCREDIBLY well received (return) visit of Ms. Diaz to Peru. The Non-Peruvian press seems to have made a mountain of scandal out of the quote of one individual. That is not to diminish the horror of Sendero, but it just is NOT how we will remember her here.She was welcomed here with the same open arms and attitude that SHE seems to have arrived with and offered to all around her.Peruvians acted as the “perfect hosts” and the only sendero (path) that marked Ms. Diaz’ visit here was that by in eating, drinking, listening, learning, hugging and kissing basically everyone and everything in her path, she was in fact a “perfect guest” which I and each Peruvian I have spoken with have been surprised at due to Ms. Diaz “international stature,” and how stars often act. Her dignified, and arguably unnecesarry, apology to the “issue”, shows what a class act she is, and Furthermore, I'll bet she is going to use this chance to learn more about Perus rich, but periodically tragic history. How many critics will do the same?As a side note, with some exceptions due to his unique security needs as the richest man on the planet if not in the galaxy, Bill Gates was pretty cool too. There was a GREAT picture of him 2 days ago in El Commercio sitting in the bleachers up in Cuzco scarfing down a Chiccharon pork sandwich, greasy fingers and all.Come on down, we would love to see you!
