Bolivia - Sacred Valley - Sergio & Marina - Jan 2007
Strange, on the morning, Marina felt that a baby would come in her house and she has anticipated the preparation of the baby bed of the family ... Luka is so happy to sleep in a real bed ! We are warmly welcomed by them. Sergio, Marina and all the family are fantastic. Their life too. Sergio left Belgium in the early 80's to escape from the military service. He arrived in Venezuela, then crossed Bolivia and arrived in Peru where he decided to stay up to now. He purchased with Marina a land in the middle of the Amazonia. They stayed there for years living from the plantations of cocoa and coffee. Afterwards, they created an association dedicated to the eduction of children in the region of Cuzco. Then they worked as persons who served overseas ... Superb family with their 6 children and the Mamita in great shape. Their anecdots are crispy, especially that one about the american who visited them in the amazonia to make a coffee from scratch ... the coffee took 3 days to be served ...
