Viktor

Viktor is an Aymara guy who I met in Calle Linares,La Paz selling awayos,ponchos and blankets from his village near La Paz.

I was drawn to his traditional clothing, I saw many Aymara women in traditional Cholita dress, but I didn't see many men in traditional clothes. Viktor explained that that men were less likely to uphold the old traditions than women, but he himself was proud to do so. I was glad, as he looked wonderful, and made a fine portrait.
