Interview with 2 Juníners

What chores do you have at home?:

They both help cook a lot but they also help clean the house, do the dishes and clean laundry, among other things. Camila helps take care of her dogs, which she has 3 of.

What jobs do your parents have?:

Maya's parents work in agriculture, specifically growing potatoes and cattle-breeding. Camila's dad works in construction and her mom works in the home.

What time does school start, and what time do you go home?:

They are both in high school, and the first session starts around 8:30 in the morning and ends around 12:45. They then have break for lunch where they typically head home or go to a restaurant nearby, and then come back in the afternoon around 2:15 for a second session until about 4:30.

How do you get to school? Are you allowed to go to school by yourself?:

They both walk to school alone.

Where do you eat lunch? What is your favorite food?:

They usually eat lunch at home, and their favorite foods are aji de gallina and patasca, the former being a plate of potatoes, rice and chicken with a rich, creamy yellow sauce, and the latter is a kind of soup with lots of different ingredients, including green onions, garlic, beef, lamb potatoes and chilis.

What language do you speak at school? How do you say "Hello" in your language?:

I certainly hope you all know how to say "hello" in Spanish by now, but they both only speak spanish in school and at home. They have English classes too.
