In this episode of “Traveling While Eating or Eating While Traveling,” we travel to La Guajira to talk with Mimi Barros, a Wayuu woman from the community of Yutao.

We talk about friche, chichiware arepas made with cariaco corn, goat prepared in different ways, and yotshi, an ancestral drink similar to other traditional Colombian spirits such as biche and ñeque. We also delve into Wayuu crafts, the colors that define their culture, and the places that, according to Mimi, you can't miss if you visit this beautiful region.

🎙️ Recorded from the foothills of the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, this episode is an invitation to discover La Guajira through its flavors, its worldview, and its people.
