Roast Guinea Pig


Title – Roast Guinea Pig
Date – October 2006
Location - Peru

Guinea Pigs in the UK are usually the cute furry little kid’s pets that spend all day running pointlessly round a wheel in a small cage.

In Peru the Guinea Pig is more likely to be seen roasting on a spit in one of the countries many restaurants serving this local speciality. It is by no means a side dish or curiosity, with over 65,000,000 Guinea Pigs being consumed every year it really is part of the stable diet; served in a variety of dishes the taste (as everything seems to) is much like rabbit / chicken.

Trying something new is very much part of the travel experience, for many the travel experience alone is a new experience and some of these other new experiences along the way, are a step too far. Beyond The Blue run workshops to help individuals to make the most of their planned journeys. With the help of our Gap Year and Independent Travel Safety & Awareness workshop you can embrace the new experiences and choose for yourself, exactly how far you want to take them.
