So after our dose of salsa we´ve been working our way down to theborder. We stopped of in an indigenousvillage weekly vegetable market of Silva (guiyambo tribe) who are themost established indigenous tribe in Colombia (see photo above). We made friends with a lady who was stitching a typical bag, her husband, and their mum whoboasted a full set of gold teeth who giggled a lot and invited us totheir house for sweet herbal tea and cheesy bread. Randomly the husbandand been to finland due to his godmother being a finnish woman who hadvisited the village so we spent the afternoon talking about culturaldifferences between Europe and Colombia, Was amazing as they were allsat there with their bright purple and pink skirts and big black bowlerhats. Also we discovered we were all the same age (except for the mum).
