We all got to edit and check the articles we had written for our given section. For me working in the people section, having such a powerful leader and example for PERU as Gaston Acurio answer an interview I had set up was very inspiring given that his words were directed to people my age and I could relate directly. What surprised me the most, was that even in the question that I thought was slightly ridiculous where he was his opinion on other restaurants copying his "riquisimas papitas de camote" he answered us confidently, and gave us a solid inteligent argument on the way he views
"exito gastronomico" (success) in the present day. I've found that I want to learn to do that; not only improving my speaking and presentation skills but also knowing my work inside out so well that I am the expert on the subject.
Gaston is an example of someone who is dedicated souly to what he loves and because of that reason exceeds expectatives. He is also the proof that behind success there is tough work and that not all the work your passionate about is going to be fun as he said: "when people are out having fun, the cook is in the kitchen". This connects directly to the IA class, we have to start taking the 'work' we produce more seriously in order for others to treat us as professionals. Thank you Gaston! your the man!
