Hey guys,

So I just got to Lima and Im moving to Trujillo tomorrow. Amazingly, I forgot my power coverter at home. Is is possible to get a converter for American plugs in Trujillo. If so, where? Even better, if anyone happens to have an extra one lying around theyd like to give away or sell, Im up for that too.

Chao!
Heather

well, yeah, you could get them at Ripley. Or pay substantially less at a local hardware store...ask around where the cluster of hardware stores is near where you're staying
