All the new missionaries stayed in Cusco for a few days with the APs, office elders, and the mission president while they figured out the transfers and stuff. We basically were given cards with a picture of Jesus and directions to the church building and were told to street contact. I felt like an annoying sales person but at least I know my product is good haha.      I went to a lesson with one of the APs and he doesn't speak any English but it ended up going good.
