Week 21, Part 2. Bolivian Lowlands

I hope I did not mix up the weeks. My vacations are over and I flew to Santa Cruz. 30 mins flight includes snacks. Amazing service by Bolivian Airlines. It has been 1 month I am in Bolivia, but I did not travel here alone, I am a bit nervious: forgot how to travel on my own.

Weeks 19-21. One Typical Day Or Spanish, Children And Football

Ok, I was lazy, extremely lazy these 3 weeks, was not doing much, unlike in my first weeks of studying on BsAs. My excuse is I was busy. Sounds strange right? What I mean is I did not visit museums, or Sucre, did not make photos. Except Parque creatico to the side of the cement factory with dynosaurs footprints, I did not do anything sightseeing-wise in this place. Bad, bad, bad.

Dynosaurus footprints


As I did not do any Spanish posts, this one will be in Spanish. NB, this is not very interesting, more for practice of my Spanish

Week 19. 7-8 June. Weekend Trekking Or I Hate You, Internet In Bolivia!

Internet is so slow and frustrating here, I give up trying to upload photos now, just few for the posts (which I am also not motivated to write). My days are pretty much the same over the week, so I think (hope?) to do one post about my day later in the week. This one is about weekend trekking in Maragua.
We were 4 with guide, it was awesome even though I managed to get cold a few days before and could not speak on Sunday. Bolivia is beautiful, I am slowly falling in love with it (like with any other country I visited - except Uruguya maybe).
Feel like I will have troubles getting out of here as well. Damn. I will never finish this journey. People I was with in Patagonia slowly start to come back to normal life, I am not even half-way yet. Especially with my ever-streching teavel plans.
Anyone would like to join for Peru-Equador and further adventures?

Some views on the way


*more to follow when (and if) I've got a courage*

Week 18, Part 2. Land Of Mines

We ran away from unwelcoming town of Uyuni same day we came back there. Heading to the highest town in the world, Potosi.

Weeks 17-18. My Dream, Uyuni

I am finally there. So close. Uyuni salar flats are were one of two reasons I am in South America. It took me 3 months though to get there.

Week 17, Part 2. Lake Titicaca

After a few days in La Paz, we moved to Copacabana to see the highest lake in the world Titicaca.

Week 16, Part 2. Last Weekend In Santiago

Yes, I am back to my favourite city so far in SA (sorry, Buenos Aires!). This is my last weekend here and in Chile before heading to Bolivia.

Week 17, Part 1. Cultural Shock

Sophie is in town! We will be travelling through Bolivia for the next 2 weeks together. Starting in La Paz, 3600 m above sea level, for a couple of days of acclimatization.and then off to the highest lake in the world.

Hola, Bolivia

Bolivian internet does not allow me to update this blog.
I am in the process of uploading photos, will be back soon with stories about Sophie's visit, rude Bolivians, magnificent Uyuni salt flats, rural/touristic highest lake in the world, life of miners and electricity shortcuts.
I am now chilling in Sucre for a couple of weeks.
Ciao!
