We are "Yapuchiri", a group of indigenous Aymara women from the rural communities of the Lake Titicaca region of the Peruvian altiplano.

Our lives are rich in many ways – the beautiful surroundings at 12,800 feet above sea level, the deep wisdom inherent in our culture. Our lives are difficult in many ways -- flood, drought, frost, and hail, racism, discrimination, lack of opportunity.
