| A llama steak in on the grill. A slow evening chat with an old man in a high altitude puesto. The smell of chewed coca leaves fills the air and mixes with smoke and asado smell. A young man arrives outside with four loaded donkeys with sheep meet from Ovejeria, headed to the Cafayate market a day away down the mountain. |
