On our way from Lima, Peru to Sucre, Bolivia, one of the many stops we had to make was in Desaguadero, the border town between Peru and Bolivia. In order to leave Peru, we had to stand in line forever to get exit stamps for our passports (and for the peruvians to get some form). while we were waiting, I saw this woman taking a break from her money changing job and had to take the picture. I was a little disappointed that the background didn´t defocus quite as much as I would have liked, but I love her face and just the reality of the moment.
Money changer, as in Jesus toppling over the tables in the temple money changer?
ReplyDeleteno more of a Bolivia and Peru don't use the same currency type. But we did go on a rampage and overturn every table we could find, just to be safe. ;)
