Sabine with Anai.
words from Sabine on her day in the country:
"After a tasty and incredibly healthy lunch we hiked up a big hill to cut grass for the cuys (guinea pigs). We put the grass on our backs and headed back down the hill. Norma's nephew and I made whistles like dad makes with blades of grass. On the walk down, indigenous people we passed, stared at me with all that grass on my back. I laughed because it was rather different, but very fun!"
