Hi,
My family and I are luckily fine, thank you all for your concern. We barely felt the earthquake here in Arequipa, as it was located further north, and it caused significant damage to the city of Pisco, where many of the houses are old and are not made of concrete. You see, most houses in Peru have to be constructed using concrete and bricks due of the regular earthquakes we have.
BTW, it was good to see that the U.S. among other countries, helped by sending literally tons of donations to those affected by this terrible tragedy.
Regards,
Bernardo
