Este lugar era como mi patio de recreo cuando era niña. Allí, donde el río suena junto a las hojas de los árboles, rodeado de vegetación por todos lados y una lluvia que me saludaba de forma frecuente. >*This place was like my playground when I was a little girl. There, where the river murmurs among the leaves of the trees, surrounded by greenery on all sides, and with the rain frequently greeting me.*

Lo curioso de este lugar, era que cruzando el río, habían más lugares por conocer. **Wamuchaka** está rodeado de cerros, estos son habitados por gente que se dedica a la **agricultura y ganadería**. >*The interesting thing about this place was that, once you crossed the river, there were more places to explore. **Wamuchaka** is located in the middle of hills, which are home to people who make their living from **farming and raising farm animals**.*

![ArT (1).jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmWNmmNbhkuiaStcLZH7LNT72TcxFPizYXkCeXJMS4N5t5/ArT%20(1).jpg) Hace años que ya no vuelvo. En este tiempo, me dí cuenta que **la gente son quienes mantienen vivo el nombre de ese lugar**. Ya sea siguiendo las tradiciones como decirse **tía o tío**, vestir con una **ropa tradicional** para realizar sus labores cotidianas, el uso de sus **animales de carga**, el **trueque**, sus **comidas** o simplemente entender su estilo de vida. >*I haven't been back in years. Since then, I've realized that **it's the people who keep the name of that place alive**. Whether it’s following traditions such as addressing each other as **aunt or uncle**, wearing **traditional clothing** while going about their daily tasks, using their **pack animals**, engaging in the practice of **bartering**, enjoying their **meals**, or simply understanding their way of life.* ![ArT (2).jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmXPZ18TjG1MrmmXBUjMonB7caGrRdSCFygKCrXXpeiMB1/ArT%20(2).jpg) Esa generación que ví activa en ese tiempo, ya no están o quedan muy pocos. Sería chévre si al regresar **me encuentre con la esencia de esos pueblos**... Que la vida de la gente mayor no haya pasado en vano y mejoren esos entornos. **Preservando la naturaleza y al ser humano**. >*That generation I saw around back then is no longer with us, or there are very few of them left. It would be great if, when I return, **I could still feel the spirit of those towns**...May the lives of older adults not have been lived in vain, and may those environments be improved. **Preserving nature and humanity.*** ![ArT (3).jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmZk3zAgakxBSJrvU6Uh34mLiZwJsqJiCAffR2YfnhQ7pS/ArT%20(3).jpg) Este puente une los pueblo **Yauyos, Wamuchaka y Aquicha**. De allí su importancia. Hace poco, lo reconstruyeron y ahora es transitado por los pobladores y turistas. >*This bridge connects the communities: **Yauyos, Wamuchaka, and Aquicha**. That is why it is so important. It was recently renovated and is now frequented by residents and tourists.* ![ArT (4).jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmT6gP3kkvxnXGxzEQ2KXBQ9n4QAo17WkMsa8HSmJFbGqG/ArT%20(4).jpg) También recuerdo que por esas zonas hay: Palta, naranja, manzanita verde, membrillo, nueces, leche, queso, charqui y su canchita serrana, truchas y otros alimentos más. >*I also remember that in those areas you can find: avocados, oranges, green apples, quinces, walnuts, milk, cheese, dried beef, and their local andean style cornbread, as well as trout and other foods.* ![InkArT_wamuchaka_Perú.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmWhmUN6Kiizc9Hoown7xCb3Gmw83ZQcB1A3iGLYacquW5/InkArT_wamuchaka_Per%C3%BA.jpg) Lo curioso es que además de estos pueblos, en la cima de los cerros hay más y más pueblos. Antes, si me decían eso simplemente no lo podía creer. Ahora que caminé por lugares similares, si creo que hayan más pueblos, **mas cultura viva** en zonas alejadas de los Andes. >*The interesting thing is that, in addition to these communities, there are more and more communities at the tops of the hills. Before, if someone had told me that, I simply couldn’t have believed it. Now that I’ve walked through similar places, I do believe there are more communities and **more vibrant culture** in remote areas of the Andes.* ![inkArT_waralwa.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmV3J73iJ3CgzdzW49Tr7N4H8U5bZBCRK8bchD2fj8KEQc/inkArT_waralwa.jpg) Para esta ilustración utilicé hoja de papel, tinta negra y una fotografía de referencia. >*For this illustration, I used a sheet of paper, black ink, and a reference photograph.*

*... Jikisiñkama!* *... ¡Nos vemos!* *... See you later!.* ![separador_Waralwa.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmWS2DR3nh71D8tJ6Efavm8LSBzxF5vj252AiDTxgEua9T/separador_Waralwa.jpg)
