Federico Kauffman Doig began his career at the Museo Rafael Larco Herrera as a security guard. Today he is president of that institution and one of the world’s most respected archeologists, as well as a delightful and engaging speaker! This program originally appeared on Televisión Nacional del Perú as part of the esteemed artistic series, Presencia Cultural.

Federico was something of a wanderer in his early days, and describes himself as having been a “pre-hippy.” His father, intent that his son be something other than a vagabundo, probed Federico for any hint of passion, any calling. “It’s called archeology!” he yelled upon hearing that the young man enjoyed exploring ancient ruins.

If you are not yet a fan of Señor Doig, you don’t have a pulse! His jungle expeditions have led to the discovery of everything from the anatomically-blessed Pinchudos statues to the giant upright mummies found in a site known as Carajía. We’re ready for an expedition!

Federico Kauffman Doig has received the highest title the Peruvian government gives in honor of cultural achievment, Amauta. Sweden and Austria have also bestowed him with awards and titles. So is he ready to join the ranks of jubilados? No way! He still explores cliffs 4000 meters high and has far too many unfinished essays to even consider it for un momentito.

Lola and Ana are two friends who share an apartment in Spain. Much to Lola's surprise, one day, Ana brings her a letter with news of an unexpected suitor from abroad.

"Sam from America" is scheduled to arrive to visit Lola much sooner than anticipated and, while the girls are super excited, their neighbor, Pablo, may not share their enthusiasm.

While Lola and Ana do their best to communicate with their somewhat strange new roommate, it seems Sam's poor Spanish could lead to some misunderstandings.

Ana and Lola are in agreement that while "Sam from America" seems nice enough, he is definitely not the heartthrob they had envisioned.

Pablo tricks Sam into saying and doing things to annoy the girls, until they finally make a drastic decision.

Upon discovering an incredibly juicy secret about Sam, Pablo advises him to keep it from the girls.

Lola, Ana and Pablo are excited to take Sam to celebrate Carnival, when their landlord pays them a surprise visit to ensure that her rules are being followed.

As Sam continues to increase his Spanish vocabulary, Lola and Ana seem increasingly intrigued by their foreign friend.

Pablo and the girls compete to take Sam shopping in an attempt to get him to reconsider his eccentric style.

As Pablo tries to teach a confused Sam the names of the articles of clothing in Spanish, the girls fight over which parts of his body each will be in charge of dressing.

Sam calls his mother to tell her how excited he is about the prospect of his new friends dressing him in hip Spanish style. Later, while brushing up on his shopping terminology, he receives an unexpected call.
