Road trip anyone?

Off to a strong start in our first week, absorbing information, understanding our clients needs. It quickly became apparent that we needed to visit with the local municipalities to see the process first hand.  Shirley (our client representative) from Soluciones Practicas was our guide for the day.  We were picked up at 6am and started off on our 3 hours road trip with endless winding roads and yet another increase in altitude. On our way to our first stop (Acomayo), we pulled off the road quickly to check out the scenery.

Now, I know what you are thinking..  Cusco is all mountains.  That is definitely not the case, it is full of hard working people, eclectic little towns and animals of all kinds. 

We visited with three great Municipal workers to better understand their processes and systems.  It was a great activity and the everyone was very cooperative, understanding that we are there to do our very best to help. Such a great feeling! We also had the opportunity to get pictures with them.  :)

Not to mention, our lunch break.. We spent it eating fruit and a near by lake. Ya ya, the view was ok.. Kidding..
