Dear David,

I am writing to express my interest in the announcement to help as an art ambassador from my country, Peru and especially from my region, Junin. I would like to say that I am currently a student of anthropology at the National University of the Center of Peru, which has allowed me to be related to the various forms of cultural manifestation in my country, so I think that this makes me a good candidate for this job.

To begin, I would like to tell you that I am a native speaker of the main native language of Peru: The Quechua, besides I have certificates of sufficiency of language in Quechua, Aymara and English. As a student of anthropology, I study many of the cultural manifestations of the region Junin and Peru as painting, dances, etc. Also, I belonged a professional group of dancers of Huaylarsh, the typical dance of Junin. Last year I worked as a tourist guide in Huancayo which allowed me to know more about the people of Junin and their customs and culture.

In addition, I would like to tell you that my favorite pastime is the reading of history books, which has allowed me to know more of Junin and Peru of the history of their dances, their music, their pictures, the history of their constructions and architecture that comes from the Incas, continuing by the time of the colony where we can see the predominance of the style neoclassical.

Thank you for your time and consideration. I am confident that my qualities and my studies qualify me for consideration. I look forward to meeting with you and discussing my abilities and experience with the art in more detail.

Sincerely,

Sebastián Camilo Vilca
