The Question
Public Question Asked by User175884 about Cusco
travel guide
I am a photographer in Miami with much interest in Cusco. I went to Chincha, Peru about three years ago as part of a medical mission to treat the residents of the area after the earthquake. After my tour there, I spent two days in Cusco. I was amazed by the energy in that city. I am very interested in going back to photograph and put together a series on the people of Cusco. I don’t want to spend a lot of time doing tourist activities or go with a tour group but would rather go where the locals go. I think Cusco is an amazing city and I want to honor it with quality images. I am looking for a local that can take me to see a Shaman and some of the local indigenous people. Any information you can furnish will be appreciated. I do not have a date set for my trip yet but plan on being there for about 6 days this time.
