Near Maragua, Bolivia.

We were on a two day trek in the area around Sucre. This woman approached with a weaving to sell us. When I purchased it she agreed to having her photo taken; however, as was often the case with rural indigenous Bolivians we encountered, she was not comfortable with looking directly into the camera. Other than this lack of comfort she was friendly and curious. As is the custom we had coca leaves to offer as a gesture of courtesy while trekking in this area. It was amazingly diverse and stunning landscapes.
