I have a beautiful colorful bag, I love this accessory. It’s my favorite bag because it has many colors and the texture is very nice, I can use it with everything and any accessory. In my country Bolivia we have a colorful blanket woven with llama wool and used by women of quechua culture. It's used to carry things and their childrens on their backs, the name is aguayo and in recent years has been used in clothing accessories like my favorite bag, also they design dresses and clothes. I’m proud of all my culture, both the Altiplano, Valle and Oriente Boliviano, each place has its richness in culture and traditional costumes. When I was studying in the University I had a colorful bag of aguayo, I carried my paper, graphs and pencils, this bag accompanied me throughout my career, I liked it so much, when I had to throw in the garbage because it was old and broken, I bought another just like it. It makes me feel globetrotting and soul free.
With my bag I have traveled to some countries around the world.
