Being at the Rainbow Centre was amazing, touching and very eventful. However, I was star struck when I saw Mama Cocha. It was a mixture of seeing the raw conditions that the centre finds itself in and witnessing the part of Peru that is neglected by its government and the rest of the world. Mama Cocha is an oasis in the midst of all this darkness and that is what struck me. I had taken part in building this centre and through my donations as well as Team Peru’s support, this centre is able to exist and sustain itself.
