RE: Wayuu women: hands weaving life and dreams of their people
Wow, thanks @allbenis for sharing your family story. It is indeed very interesting to find out about the origins of your ancestors! The Wayuu people live between Colombia and Venezuela, as they did not have such borders before the birth of man-made nations. They are still entitled to freely move from a nation to the other without too many controls. We heartly recommend to visit a community and get to know their history and customs.
On the contrary, thanks to you for being interested on what i had to say. I must say that i knew that, about the non-existent boundaries between countries for the Wayuu culture. That's the way it should be to everyone. Although many, if not all, of the customs were lost in my family due to the regular transcontinental travels and generations past, i would love to visit a comunity and see their way of living.
