Explanations: “Ay, estos gringuitos” means “Oh, these gringuitos.” Gringuitos is usually used to refer to any stranger in general. “Eyes creem.” attempting to say “ice cream”
A bit sinister actually, looking at where people might attach a ‘rich-tourist’ tag to Americans OR Englishman and exploit them for it…
Some of the sentences are a little clunky, for example ‘repeats with a crude accent a man dressed in bright yellow’ – could read better as ‘a man dressed in bright yellow repeats in his crude accent’… Just a thought.
Still the idea is original, different to all other entries so far – well done and thanks, MH :)
I like how this one takes on an outside perspective. Normally in these stories we hear
“the clumsy, American traveller and the intelligent, sophisticated Brit” or “the stuck-up, nosy Brit and the down-to-earth, natural American”
but I like how you introduced the peruvian lady so we see just how out of place both of them are.
A tip- It seams to be a really busy scene (which is great), but that doesn’t mean your text has to be the same. Try clearly separating paragraphs and maybe have the woman who says the last line be the one who he asks the directions. I count 8 characters if you count the person who steals his wallet.
