    You will meet the indigenous Wayuu tribe at the Guajira peninsula. Its economy is one of survival with grazing activities, artisanal fishing, handicrafts and seasonal agriculture according to the rainy season. Cultural obligations, such as collaboration for payments, are an important part of the economic capacity of indigenous castes and families. According to their worldview, the spirit of the wind drives the cloud, which fertilizes the mountains with its rain. In his integral thought, the forms of nature are intimately linked with the future of the human being.
