Are those people happy to be a tourist attraction?

The Yagua live in a more modern village and wear normal clothes but come to the traditional village and wear the traditional dress once a week to put on a demonstration for those staying at the research station. After the demonstration, they sell handmade goods and thus a significant source of income is earned. I myself spent over 100 dollars. I wouldn't use the term tourist since we were staying 4 hours upriver from the nearest town and there is no hot water and only periodic electricity.
