There are some young Qero people down the street who have befriended me. I took my sculpting down there today to make a puma for my friend Maribell who is teaching me the Quechua language.
A dozen kids wanted a turn and a teen named Mario just took over. I will gift this piece to him since he is doing most of it.
A little two year old kept grabbing my tools and when I finally got stern with him, he whipped out his penis and pissed on my leg! Guess it is best not to piss people off here. Even the grown men just piss in the street so it smells like urine. Good thing it rains every day. Suz
