Wayuu villages (La Guajira)
Whether sea shores on Cabo de la Vela, or inland, the villages of Wayuu are extremely humble, and lack basic needs. Their houses, sometimes surrounded by a fence of cactus, are made of coarse wood or branches thatched roofs and sand floors. The Wayuu sleep in hammocks in the same room where they cook, eat and meet the family. They have no running water or electricity, the water reaches them once a week or every 10 days in a tanker. Most homes have an electrical generator that lights until 9 or 10 at night, but in the rest of the village after sunset complete darkness reigns.
