Maybe the most pleasant part of our visit to Cochabamba was the outstanding hospitality of Gaby Vallejo and the other 'mujeres peliogrosas' (dangerous women). For their wonderful hospitality and all the work they do for the Children of Cochabamba, we would like to thank Carmen Barrientos, Lidia Coca, Rosy Montan, Casilda Sempertegui, Olga Nunez, Mary Rojas, and special thanks to Gaby.
We would also like to thank Linda Veltze for maintaining this relationship with La Biblioteca. She has created a unique service learning opportunity for the students and Faculty of Appalachian State University, a mutually beneficial relationship with heart and purpose.
For more information about La Biblioteca Th'uruchapitas, see their website (in Spanish) or under 'additional information' in the right hand sidebar.
