Peru 2019

This fall I finally had the pleasure of crossing Peru off my travel bucket list (although, I have a feeling I’ll be back again soon). I spent a couple weeks exploring solo before linking up with the Aula Artesana crew for a weaving + natural dyes workshop. Thanks to Aula, I got an incredibly unique and intimate experience, learning to weave with a community of masters high in the Andes.

I’ve picked a few of my selects to share. Enjoy.
