Hopeful...
This young girl is an inhabitant of the reed islands of Lake Titicaca.
Located between Bolivia and Peru, Lake Titicaca is one of the most fascinating lakes in the world. Lake Titicaca is a sacred place for the Inca civilization, as the Incan mythology says that the first Inca king, Manco Capac, was born here. According to the Incan mythology, this is the place where the world was created from, when the god Viracocha came out of the lake and created the sun, the stars and the first people.

Teresa Zieba
Very interesting info and photo.
wigs replied
thank you Teresa, I was an intersting place to visit. It was suggested to us to take gifts for the children but when I got there they all seemed to be well dressed (as the picture shows) and have toys so I saved mine for the children in the really deprived areas.
