  • Today I'm exploring San Juan which is one of the many Mayan villages that surround Lake Atitlan in Guatemala! This is the first time in my life that I decided to trust a tour guide because I personally found a lot of interest in things he promised to show me!
    One of them was to show me the whole process of creating these fancy traditional clothes that all the local women around me had.
    The craziest part was not only the long, hard and complicated work required to make these clothes .. But some bigger and stricter requirements (unwritten laws) that may seem unusual to me or you, but to other people in our lovely planet is just a normal part of their culture.
    Hope you enjoy this video !Leggo!

    So much respect for those women and for this culture, they kept their hardwork and tradition and added the education as every country should. Not like us in Europe forgetting where we came from and only study for being well paid or making a career.

    The first export from Guatemala were two dyes a tree from the Caribbean coast...the Spanish brought Caribbean Black slaves to cut the trees and those trees were a natural dye shipped to Europe. The second export dye came from around the highlands beetles that were ground up to make a brilliant red natural dye...it was EXTREMELY valuable..the women would pick the beetles from the leaves of Nopal cactus....also shipped to Europe in powdered form.

    I was in Guatemala City and Guatemala Antigua in the mid 1980. I worked for the US Department of Defense and traveled through out Latin America. I saw the weaving done by hand. I'm not sure if the demonstration I saw was in Antigua or Guatemala City. Very interesting country as it has a number of tribes and they are recognizable by their clothing styles and colors. I saw the Quetzal when I was there. A gorgeous bird with beautiful plumage.

    Timmy you were setup a bit. 'Tour guides' will eagerly direct you to their 'friends' where you can spend your money on stuff. Having said that, the Guatemalans are amazing craftsmen. Some textile designs go back to Mayan times, and apparently the women's blouses can indicate what village they're from, and whether they're married I think, (Guatemalans online could correct me if I'm wrong.) Some of the better craftsmen are very good indeed - worldclass. I saw a woodcarver in Santiago Atitlan (another village around that lake) working on a carving that was unreal. Textiles are a specialty. In Antigua, there's a whole industry of jade polishing and jewelry for the tourists. I remember chatting with a gem cutter there, talking shop about jade polishing methods... Walking out of the store, the owner said something to us.
    I asked my companion what the guy said: "Oh he offered you a job, if you want to come back and make jewelry."
    Great people, a beautiful country. I hope to visit you guys again some day. Salud, de los Estados Unidos!

      I don't think it was a set up, its business nothing wrong with that. Its o.k. if friends help each other out, they are doing a great service to those unfamiliar with the region. As you can hear Tim say, he didn't know where to go when he ran into the boat man who said he'll take him to another part. That's when the other man offered him the tour which was an unbelievable experience to see...all for $10. It was worth twice as much. Cheers!
