Several hours by boat and a world apart, an island stay offers a fascinating opportunity to learn about local life. Cut off from the mainland, islanders often only speak Quechuan and keep alive their own long-held customs. More than that just offering a fascinating glimpse into another world, however, it can be great fun, with households often full of children, and animals, colour and life. These are, above all, true communities, living in harmony with the land, the family and neighbours. And, as the ochre-red sun sets below the lake and the waves gently curl up onto your island’s shores, you’ll understand why your newly adopted family is so proud of this remote, special place.
