  • Looks a lot of fun - engaging to watch. Loved the masks. I would have liked to hear more details about the origins and meanings of the festival and rituals. More of the indigenous voices. What / who is Pachama? Whats the Catholic connection, what time of year does it actually happen?
    I hope the camera man managed to enjoy some drinks as well!

  • This was well done- you had a great approach to the whole thing. I agree with the last response, however. I've been to Bolivia and know about "pachamama" and chicha, (although I didn't know it had feces in it, gross) but some more explanation of those things would have been useful. Very entertaining.

  • The shoes remind me of similar ones we wear in Africa.

    This totally inspired me to want to travel more after high achoool. I already have Brazil arranged and I'm looking at Hostels around the world! Doing things like this would be pretty awesome.
