SONJIA CUHER: On behalf of Expert Village this is Sonjia. Ziplocs; I love these things, these are the best things to take and they are expensive down there and everybody loves them. These are great gifts, and I use them for everything. I pack underwear. I can easily separate bras from socks from anything, the knick knacks. I pack gifts in the Ziploc bags. I use double Ziploc bag if I'm going to the jungle and I don't want, let's say my memory card getting wet, I pack my makeup they are see-through, I mean you name it. I use my Ziplocs for everything. If I'm hungry, I can buy a small snack there and usually it's very expensive to get a plastic bag in Peru, so you go to the market, they are going to wrap the fruit or your sandwich many times with just a small piece of paper, so I give this as a gift and I also put my lunch or any snack that I want for the trail. I use them especially--yeah I know I'm vain sometimes, I take makeup. These are so good and everything is clear, you can get from the smaller to the big ones and I feel so protected, nothing gets wet. I know it's very easy to find plus people love the fact that that you know--it looks organized, so that's for me a very important thing.
