The Wayuu and the Mochila

According to legend, the women of the Wayuu were taught how to weave patterns by a spider.

This story, however is not about a mochila but about how I came to meet a beautiful Wayuu woman in the wild and distant region of La Guajira.

Taking flight. Destination: Angels Falls, Venezuela

Flying has always been something that I love. I love it even more when I get lucky and score the window seat! "Shotgun!"

Flying in a light aircraft, however always adds so much more excitement and adventure to any flight! I took this photograph when I noticed that another light aircraft had joined us as we both roared across the skies over the remarkable plateaus and jungles of Venezuela.

Here, we're en route to experience the world's tallest waterfall, Angel Falls but first, there was a valley of clouds to make our through.

Make this print your own and bring the adventure into your home by heading to Society6!

The first dance

What better way to kick things off with than with the first dance!

Although, I do need to be honest here. Originally, I had asked my friend, Dimitri to cartwheel across Route 51 in the region of Salta, Argentina. What was meant to be an elegant cartwheel turned into something a little more clumsy, yet surprisingly charming.

Perhaps, that's the best way to describe any adventure.
