Life on a floating island can’t be easy – but the Peruvian Indians of the Uros Islands, Lake Titicaca, have been doing it for centuries. Take a balsas boat from Puno and discover a fascinating aspect of Peruvian culture – the floating islands of Uros - made entirely from totora reeds. We visit one floating village.
