Hundreds of years ago the Uros people escaped the wrath of the Incas and lived on the water instead of the land so the Incas couldn't get to them. The reeds were their only resource and they learned to make everything out of them, and they still do to this day. It's insane!
This is so special. I've never considered going to Latin America but you definitely make me want to go to Peru! Oh well, first I'm going to walk in the footsteps of your South East Asia trip :D
Omg as an American that lives in a small village, I REALLY want to go to a tropical and small Island just like that. I wish my family had the money to go to Peru!
Nice trip man. Hope you enjoyed all the Peruvian warm hearts. It's really nice around there. Hope next time you can reach my country. We will be waiting for you. Danke for all the content. Cheers from Bolivia.
Wow this is one of my favorite videos so far. I was close to this place as well when I went from La Paz to Cuzco (and eventually Machu Picchu) as well. But we only had a short break there on the side of the road so we didn't see the floating villages. Of course I'm very curious now if you will visit Bolivia too, now that you're almost there already. My trip was back in 2012, but I still think about that time. Especially after seeing your previous one. Thanks and have fun!
WOW... I mean Just Wow What a Vlog Rad!!! This is what I was Talking about...! Amazing I loved the vlog + your humour on top of that. Much Love❤️❤️❤️✌️🤘🙌🙏🙏🙏
Way cool video, man. Got me to want to go there even more. I've seen videos of the lake and its people and culture before, but your production made me feel like I've been there. Well done.
That truly is willage 🤣🤣🤣 . Oh and my favorite car I ever had was a 1968 VW beetle. It plowed through a a foot of snow (a little over 30 cm) with ease. With those skinny 15 inch tires and all the weight of the lawn mower motor in the back. Plus you can take to from hood off and set in the front for a fun ride. It was great living in a small town or willage as you'd call it 😁 . Thanks for the tour. When I was in school I did as good as I could to study South America (which wasn't much with the LIMITED library I had access to) thanks truly. 😘
I'm happy that you could visit Uros Island. I went there with my father 10 years ago, and it was a wonderful experience. If you have the opportunity to spend more time in Puno, go to Taquile Island!! Greetings from Peru! ✌
Surprisingly, from 32 million Peruvians, 10 million live only in Lima. Pretty much like my country. It's such a pity in my opinion, with that much of beauty and wellness all around
Aww I thought we were the only one that has the only floating lake that people live on it. It's very similar to our LOKTAK LAKE in MANIPUR. We also make traditional Mat by reed grass, bags, lamp, and other stuff but not in the lake huts though. Only one house can built in each floating ring Phumdi's. The only difference is our floating Phumdi does not sink, when the water level goes down, it still stay as it is and does not change anything. People survive selling fishes from there.
Bienvenido a Perú, causita Welcome to Peru ,buddy You should considerate visit the peruvian Amazon jungle and mountains like Huascaran or Ica's dune to practice sandboarding 😳 All of in Peru
Hey man, been watching you forever. Love your content. May I ask you, could you roughly tell us how much you are making monthly from RU-vid at the moment? Just a rough number? I would really appreciate it! I hope you are having fun traveling!
This is a great video keep it up. Radical Living please can you comment on this video you would be the first youtuber to ever reply on my comment. (I was the 20th person to comment on your video)
The Titicaca , we have it too in Bolivia :) I say ' we ' I'm a foreigner. I so love Bolivia . Peru and Chile. The Andes. But I 'm sensitive to the mentalities and I come from France so .. the Sun doesn't always make good on heads. The mountain calms down but I want the one of the end of the world. :)
Hey, great location and very useful tip. Many thanks! Please, could you tell us about mosquitoes there? I know that it is winter down there, but I don't know if even in the winter they have mosquitoes. Keep up with your great videos.
@@RadicalLiving Thanks for replying dude. Am surprised to hear the pleasant temperature during the day time. I thought it would be in the low 10s instead of high 10s. I hope you get some sort of heating at night.
so a patch of grass growing ontop of another patch of grass land floating above grass under the water. Okay srsly who came up with this insanely meme of way to escape modernized society xd
The Volkswagen is 100% no waste as it is completely rotting, how about the Mercedes Benz? The plastic parts are they being reused or do they become waste? What is happening to them?
