This section showcases the people and places in and around La Ventana. The lifestyle is very different from what you and I are used to. It is in many ways much simpler, and quite a bit more relaxed. This is neither inherently better or worse than ours - just different. I feel privileged to immerse myself in it for a few weeks each year.

I am indebted to Bruce, who has befriended many of the local residents, for gaining me much of the access to them.

The house that Bruce's friend Pilar grew up in.
