Village life

The village I lived in was named "Crazy Waters". This name referes to the troubled waters, or currents that clash into eachother. The village is located in the littoral zone of the Orinoco Delta, which means it is in the costal area of the delta. The tidal waters meet the Orinoco river coming down from the Amazonia, causing several vertgo streems. In this picture, as the sun is going down, you can see the tide coming inn, starting to cover the mud banks on the outskirts of the village. On the left you see part of the bridge, or Hoisi. All the housholds have one, where they enter and leave in their canoes. In this aquatic environment, all families have a canoe.
