Today, about 2000 Uros (or Uru) live on an archipelago of 120 artificial islands, clustering in the West corner of the lake Titicaca near Puno.
In the last fifteen years the islands have become a popular tourist attraction, allowing Felix here and his people to supplement their hunting and fishing activities by welcoming visitors to the islands, selling handicrafts and sharing their way of life.
So far this has proven to be a good thing, allowing their culture to survive with a small outside contamination
