Sicuani

Thsi picture was taken in a little village called Sicuani, on the way from Cusco to Punu, Peru. We stopped there for lunch with Inka Express ( a local VIP bus company stopping at multiple spots of interest along the route). However, people went off the bus, directly into the walled restaurant where they were served their food. Me, being a rebel, I decided to walk around the town which I found to be deserted. There were only a few mechanics working on some cars and few kids running around. The city however was very interesting as it offered really colorful walls and houses that set themselves off from the rather grey and rough sourroundings. You can find a lot of these rikshaw type bikes in Peru, used for transporting heavy goods and sometimes people. I particular like the assymmetry of the houses and the color repetition in the clouds.
