EPISODE with JASON "SWINGO" JONAS
December, 2009
CAJAMARCA, PERU
Jason Jonas enters a plain, cement-floored building used as a cantina and steps to the cafeteria-style dining table at one wall serving as a bar. Its liquid wares are in crates and coolers underneath it. As he orders, Jonas strikes up a conversation in Spanish with the small woman serving the drinks. He watches her hand very closely when she pops the top on the tall bottle of Cusquena.
At a small table beside her is a man Jonas presumes to be her husband. He looks proprietary over everything - woman, bar, and clientele. Effusively friendly with Jonas, he is about five foot six in height, with short black hair. He wears a white long-sleeved shirt with a string tie. He seems to know everybody. He is drinking a fair amount.
