The Wayuu Taya Foundation - Susu Bag

I'm so excited to show you my gorgeous Susu bag from the Wayuu Taya Foundation that Flechada - a flash sales sites that sell Latin American designer brands with prices up to 70% off - sent me! OMG as soon as I saw this bag I fell in love with it, the colors are so rich and remind me of Latin America. In case you didn't know I was born and raised in Peru. The best part about the Susu bags is that proceeds of each purchase benefit child care, hygiene programs, nutritional programs, and education and health services for the Wayuu people - the people that make these gorgeous bags. So that you know, each bag is made by a different Wayuu woman and it could take her up to 20 days to make each one-of-a-kindbag. I love that Flechada supports the Wayuu Taya Foundation!

Hace unas semanas Flechada, un sitio web donde encontraras marcas de diseñadores Latino Americanos con precios que tienen hasta un 70% de descuento, me mando esta mochila de los Wayuu o Guajiros. Para los que no saben, los Wayuu son un grupo étnico latinoamericano que habita en la frontera de Colombia y Venezuela. Ni bien vi esta mochila, o como ellos le dicen "susu," me enamore de ella. No solo por los colores, si no porque con cada mochila que uno compre estamos ayudando a los Wayuu. Para que se den una idea, se dice que cada mochila es elaborada por una sola mujer y su elaboracion puede tomarle hasta 20 dias. ¡Me encanta que Flechada apoye a la fundacion Wayuu Taya!
