On the right is our guide Pedro, he comes from a familly of miners, and actually started working in the mines when he was ten, he eventually quit to start working for the Cuala Tours, a company run by ex miners. It was very fascinating to here about the mines , and the miners life from somebody who comes from such familly, the miners are very proud of their work, and the hard working conditions only strengthens the solidarity between them. He says the mining job pays better, but he likes his new job more, as he cares about his health, and he likes the gringas !
