Sariri
Travels Through Bolivia
Ivar Mendez
The Aymara people of the Bolivian Andes have a word that describes Ivar Mendez’s nature as a traveller: sariri, one who travels not only to visit new places but also to explore and seek new knowledge – a pilgrim on a spiritual quest, a traveller in search of new horizons, adventures, and cultures. In these 20 essays, Mendez reflects on how he wandered on foot through remote regions of the Andes, navigated Amazonian waterways, and immersed himself in Indigenous communities.
