Ok, ready to use our lungs because we´re now at an altitude of 4000 meters above sea level!!! As for La Paz, I personally enjoyed our visit here. It´s really a particular capital due to it´s unusual topography. And because of it´s location, it´s usually pretty chilly here. It was nice, the pe…

Travelling South America in one month ;)

Lunchtime bus to La Paz and arrived into the capital city of Bolivia! Amazing view as La Paz sits in a valley surrounded by the mountains. Every available space was built on and everywhere was very busy! We decided this time to find a hostel when we arrived rather than book before we went…. We d…

Het is perfect georganiseerd, rijd op tijd en heeft hele comfortabele bus…

some day I will create a greatest hits blog, for now it is just a boring map and some photos. Check out my separate entry for the trip from La Paz to Puno though. Mexico - Peru - Chile - Bolivia

Overland trip from Caracas to Ushuaia and up to Lima. Including a jungle trek, Carnaval in Rio, riding with gauchos in Uruguay and trekking the Paine Circuit.

Arrived back in La Paz, 4 years after first visiting this city. We just love the place, it is so different, quirky and, well, Bolivian! Spent a few days taking in the sights (and the altitude) of the city and stayed at a fab hostel, Arthy`s.
