Walking tour of Cusco.....
... city that we pick up some of the rubbish and put it into a bag that he gives us-it's totally voluntarily but everyone participated. Good idea. Then he brought us to a Cocoa shop and showed us other uses for the plant instead of cocaine, like wine, beer and various foods. Then onto the hippy part of town that had a good view of the city. Then he explained a little about how the Incas built their buildings and then the last ...

Awamaki’s master weaver and dye workshop guide, Daniel, showed us around his house (our lodgings for four days) and then took us to search for some plants for our dyes!
