Right up to today the Q’eros live in their remote mountain villages with no electricity or phones. Their most important source of income is wool from the alpacas, and every family has at least one herd.
Just like the family of nine-year-old Christobal. By custom, Christobal will become the godparent of the last-born cria (Spanish for “baby”) of the season. It is uncertain how much longer the Q’ero Indians will be able to maintain this tradition. More and more are leaving their homeland and emigrating to the big cities. At the moment, Christobal has no interest in leaving. He is eagerly anticipating the birth of “his” alpaca cria.
