Erika's story

Erika was born in Yantile District, Calca Province (Cusco, Perú). She is 25 years old and is single. She currently lives in the city of Cusco where she carries out her economic activities. She leases out her taxi for 25 new soles to people who want to provide transportation services in the city. She’s been in this business for several years now and does very well thanks to the effort she puts into her work. On this occasion, Erika needs the loan to service her car. Erika’s dream is to open a tourist restaurant in downtown Cusco because there are a lot of tourists.

The “El Molinito II” (The Little Mill II) communal bank meets every thirty days in the city of Cusco (Perú). Cusco is known for its tourism, commerce and for its traditional, Inti Raymi, festival and because one of the Seven Wonders of the World, Machupicchu, is located there.
