Que te llamas? 1 de Mayo. Club de Madres.


The community I have been working in for the past 3 weeks. Its a moms club and they sew and knit together every morning. I am going to be this little guys godmother and attend his baptism in March apparently. Also, I am knitting a hat with llamas on it. The moms are amazing and I miss them already. Hopefully in February before I go to Buenos Aires I will be able to come back and visit them for a little bit. The pictures below are of the community, the women, an exposition of the things they make, frying treats for the exposition and of course the KIDS! They want me to start a co-op with them and sell the "aguayos" or tapestries in the United States and then share the money with them to help the community. The picture with the older woman and me with the baby on my lap... look at that one carefully... that tapestry is what they want to make and sell. Would you buy that? The aguayos are GORGEOUS so I think I know all of your answers already.


I like to call this section my random section. Why? Because its a compilation of random pictures that have nothing to do with each other. (1) a sign of a dog pooping (2) a large collection of plastic bottles on top of a small car. people also move their couches and belongings this way (3) view from airplane of Bogota, Colombia when I had to make an emergency landing on my way to Miami (4) graffiti in la paz (5) graffiti in cochabamba
