Thank you, Rosalba for the utterly lovely tour of Los Nevados. You are a good ambassador for the wonders of Venezuela and the kindness of its people. You made us feel we were with you in the little posada with its simplicity and stunning views, not to mention fresh and delicious food. The town, the church, the people, the radio station manned by just one person whose passion for communication benefits the mountain people and alleviates any isolation is a testament of the greatness of the human spirit. The curuma fruit looks amazing and must be full of needed vitamin C, if is is a botanical cousin to the passion fruit. Your care for the donkey, the horses and the little fluffy dog in the town's posada speaks to your warm heart. What a treat to be able to see all that, which is never shown on commercial TV. You are preserving a way of life and its people for history. Blessings to all the peoples of Los Nevados and to you and your family. 🤗🤗😘😘🐎

Thanks Rosalba for showing us the marvels that nature offers us, I am impressed by the friendliness and cordiality of its inhabitants. I am fascinated by the typical costume!!

Interesting opening with folks tending a plot of land outside their home and someone seemingly fishing in a river. I'll bet there's a lot of wonderful fishing to be done for family meals in those rivers and mountain streams. The artwork on the crosses in the cemetery is beautiful and looks more delicate than it must be to survive the mountain seasons. Do you have relatives buried there? I note you have a puffer vest on, so it must be a bit chilly. Here we see another church painted blue & white. Is this common in commemoration of the Blessed Mother, since they are her colors? The posada looks comfy and lovely and your lunch looks hearty for an upcoming trip on horseback. Must the innkeepers travel far to get supplies or is most food, etc., available locally? Is your sister operating the camera? If she was your luncheon companion, she does look a lot like you. With horses/burros/mules having such gangly legs under large bodies, it is good to know there are breeds that are sure-footed for this type of work, carrying riders or goods over mountainous terrain. There are thick sticks/branches of maybe 4 feet in height standing around and often in rows. Are they hitching posts for horses and mules? Life looks like it goes on here somewhat unaffected by the current government in power. Is that the case? If they grow their own produce and grain and raise their own livestock and have fresh, flowing water and the radio station to communicate, it may be so. Wow, that's quite a supply of stacked wood outside that building you're passing. Do they have an itinerant priest who visits the mountain villages on a regular circuit, so they are not without the sacraments? What are the white cloth things that look like someone's britches up near the altar? That fruit was a beautiful color and looked sweet and juicy. A great snack for such a journey. Probably the villagers get news of the outside world from the radio station. Does it also present music and public service announcements, like about Covid when it hit? Where do folks buy clothing, as it appears it is not all homemade on local looms, etc.? I know they are not making denim for their dungarees in those mountains. Saddles, maybe. Handbags, maybe. Probably not the boots? I loved this. See you on your next excursion. I am so glad I missed only that one initial video from your trip to your family home.
