The skills I learned gardening and creating jewelry are priceless...Your work and dedication is AMAZING!
I had an amazing time with the family and with all the women and town people while speaking, watching volleyball or soccer games, playing cards, going to Maquipucuna Reserve and 2 local waterfalls, going with everybody to the pool and to a local Teleferico, watching them fishing, going in the village and so much more.
