How can a Peru Citizen get a Tourist Visa for the USA

How can a Peru Citizen get a Tourist Visa for the USA?
If I am in Peru and I want to get a Tourist Visa without intent to immigrate to the United States, how do I get the visa? I really want to see New York City. How do I get a Visa for the USA while living in Peru? I am a Peruvian Citizen. How much does it all cost and how long does it take? Can I have the tourist visa by June? I have a full time job that I have worked for years. My brother is a USA Permanent Resident and lives in Jacksonville though and is there legally.

I am an American with masters degree in education. How easy would it be to get a nice teaching job in Peru

I am an American with masters degree in education. How easy would it be to get a nice teaching job in Peru?
Other details/Questions: What is needed, a work visa? Is this difficult to obtain? Suppose I married a Peruvian? Does this make things easier? A teacher married to a Peruvian architect. Do you imagine they would be earning a comfortable living? FYI, I speak literate Spanish (not "fluent," but pretty darn good).

Not hard. Personally I'd choose Costa Rica, Chile or Argentina. I have a cousin in education who has been teaching in Dubai for the past two years, making money hand over fist and loves living there.

You might check with Avianca (colombia) and LAN (peru and others). LACSA also is the CR airline. Hmmm.....guess they are now TACA. Long time no use. Check middle of the week flights (wednesday/thursday). I just booked with Avianca to Lima and one and two day differences on flight dates dropped price $200. Check LAN first, they have an online sliding date which gives prices for different dates. My guess is other airlines follow suit. Hope this will help you. Enjoy your trip.

Avianca

I recommend you Avianca (Colombia) and LAN (Chile), LAN is more expensive

Questions about Peru and Lima in south america

Questions about Peru and Lima in south america?
In the summer, I am going to south America for a school program called global explorers. There is only a few people going. We are visiting Lima, exploring the rain forest, and going to some villiages to do community work for their schools. I'm really excited. My questions are 1. Have you been to south America? And if u have, what was it like? 2. I heard that u trade in some places? Is it true, and what kinds of things should I trade? 3. Is there anything I should know?

Hi ,i 've spent two months in Peru and you're right to be exited about your trip.That country is just incredible.Nice people ,nice place and the best food of all latin america.I've mostly spent these two months in lima but i 've also been living in some really poor and isolated areas and i can assure that there is not such thing as trade in theses areas.(or only if you want it?)Don't worry about change .You can easily find somewhere to change your money in every big city.(Cuzco,Nazca,Juliaca,Lima....basically everywhere) Peruvian people are quite honest,most of the time they won't try to charge you more if you attend to buy something (frequently no price tag even in shops) but don't trust them on timing.If you ask them to do something for next week,basically it 'll be ready for next month.a bit exaggerated but so true. Be careful with water,don't buy it in the streets and don't forget to vaccinate before going. I hope it helps you.Please be indulgent with my english as I'm not totally a fluent speaker.:)
