The Reed People

So, these are the Huros (Indians) who live
on the highest navegable lake in the Western
Hemisphere (Lake Titicaca). Yes, the people
actually live ON these floating reed platforms
and live in theses huts made out of reeds; and,
as you can see by the little girl, peel back the
outer part and chew on the white fiber and eat it
(kind of like what you would do with sugar cane...).
They speak their own Indian language, Aymará.
