A view of the landscape from Tilcara, Jujuy, Argentina. I’m studying in Mendoza and traveled through the north, learning about the Andean culture…folklore music, the Quechua language, and their immense respect for the Pachamama, mother earth. Every day we hiked through different parts of La Quebrada de la Humahuaca, a huge area of the region with mountains of all colors where each layer corresponds to a different geological era. A life changing adventure!!!
