Chauaitiri Village


A visit to the village of Chauaitiri. Their village is situated at the highest point of the mountains and they have a tribal council that makes decisions for everyone. They made the most beautiful woven items.


Rainbow looms with lama bones to weave colorful alpaca thread through.


This baby knows what's up. I loved the hats so much it was the first thing I purchased in Peru. Most people bargained but I couldn't cause thats just some damn fine craftsmanship. I forked over the Soles for those amazing geometric designs.





The yarn making. The colorful blue yarn gets its coloring from men's pee. No, I'm not kidding....

Moray


Moray. A great place to wear hats.

Formerly, a place to celebrate Pachamama (Mother Earth). It's a site with really good energy and as you descend into the center, the temperature rises.


It was a place to grow crops and have celebrations. This was my favorite spot of the whole trip.

Burning stuff is cool. Burning stuff with hats is even cooler.
