Tarabuco Sunday Market
This is a top pick! ... in their tribal wear, I thought they were in touristy places – dress up for photos kind of thing. Here in Bolivia, much of Peru and less so in Ecuador; tribal wear and fashion – especially hats, are worn with incredible ...
Enter Bolivia!
This is a top pick! ... the bolivean border....jumped off the bus and picked up our exit stamps. We then needed to walk across a bridge into bolivia get ourselves stamped in and back onto the bus....this was completed without any hitches! Yey! Upon our arrival ...

This is a top pick! ... than $3) and he rolled his eyes at me like that little girl in Cusco. He finally told me to leave. I left. In a hurry. So Bolivia is a little shady. A little dodgy as the Brits say. But I thought it was pretty cool. You can buy an empanada for 12 ...
Lost in La Paz
This is a top pick! ... the crumbling city. We walked around, gazing at the beautiful intricate colonial facades, wondering how long it had been since Bolivia had some glory days. The whole thing reminded me of last year's trip to Portugal – where in Porto ...
Lovely Lovely Sucre
This is a top pick! ... ; young, vibrant, full of students - many highschools, universities: streets brimming with fun and energy. Capital of Bolivia, seat of the government and the courts and apparently very rich - now and in the previous centuries. Beautiful ...
The Bolivian Altiplano
This is a top pick! ... upon waking was that I was feeling sick again....obviously yesterday had been too much and taken it's toll. Today, we were leaving for Bolivia, ascending nearly 2,500m in the space of a few hours...oh dear! At the travel agent's office we met with Dan and ...
The second half of the trip to La Paz
This is a top pick! ... . It's the most abject poverty I've ever seen. Keep in mind that Peru, Mexico, Guatemala and Honduras aren't exactly cosmopolitan. Bolivia is just that poor. So that's a quick synopsis. Let me just reiterate that it felt like the day would never ...
The Journey of the Devil of the Death From Hell...
This is a top pick! ... of the West in one of those 'In Brief' mini-columns, as these things frequently do. Especially from places like Bolivia. Just a bit differently... The journey across the continent from Uyuni to Puetro Iguazu has been an absolute fucking nightmare. ...
Exploring La Paz on Foot
This is a top pick! We slept like champs after the prior 2 days of hating life. We didn't have any big plans for La Paz. We knew there were a few things to see, but it's not exactly a hot spot for tourism. There are some great hikes around the country, but La Paz doesn't ...
Copacabana all inclusive style.
This is a top pick! ... one of the best in Chile. Not many people go there, as it's so far from other main attractions in Chile. And people who visit Bolivia, typically don't know that it is an easy few hours drive there from La Paz (including me). I just found out in fact, but ...
Lunch with the boys
This is a top pick! ... , and shared 2 liters of Pepsi, and then they conned me into buying them new shoe shine cream. In all I spent less than $10 (Bolivia is so cheap). But the boys were really nice and appreciative (they said thank you twice each after both the soup and the ...

A bit down on my way up...
This is a top pick! ... the different options (go solo, with an agency etc.), they tell me that although it's high season for tourism in Bolivia, it's low season in Noel Kempff Mercado. The reason being that there's practically no water whatsoever, making river travel ...
Tell Letterman that Steve saw AND touched a monkey
This is a top pick! ... bus ride on Bolivia's not-so-stellar "death road"-type highways. We splurged $100 round-trip on a flight, operated by Bolivia's military. After a flight on a small plane, we landed on the tiniest football field ever, also known as ...
The Altitude Diaries...
This is a top pick! ... there will be trouble - she will take my coke and my chocolate. This cannot happen... 3. I have found a perfect bathroom in Bolivia. It is clean. It doesn't smell. It even has toilet paper. There are no signs of the ...
Braving the Alitudes in Bolivia
This is a top pick! ... altitude when she was in La Paz. I put that thought aside and got on the bus. The border crossing from Chile to Bolivia was like no international border I´d ever seen. But I guess I´ve really only seen the US borders (both Mexico and ...
Capital of Bolivia
This is a top pick! ... Bolivian gentleman (10 Bolivianos or GBP0.70 each). He explains the history of Sucre, the importance of silver, independence for Bolivia, the economic influence of the Scots and Irish in the country, and the reason for the confusion about the capital ...
Adios Peru...Hola Bolivia 4-11 Nov
This is a top pick! ... Boliviano £35 – that’s a bargain but it will take over 30 hours and we will travel almost the full length of Bolivia. It’s a shame that I will not get to see anymore of Bolivia, than La Paz. Bolivia is even poorer than Peru, therefore ...
No showgirls in this Copacabana (not even Lola!)
This is a top pick! ... than in most places we've visited. But rather than treating us as aliens, we felt at ease and welcomed amongst them. I know Bolivia is a place we definitely come back to! She Said: Since we have been in South America, I have been taking a crash course ...
Did Steve Survive Bolivia´s Death Road?
This is a top pick! ... ;great tourist attraction. Peru has Machu Picchu, India has the Taj Majal and France, of course, has stinky french people. Well, Bolivia has managed to outdo them all with the ¨Death Road,¨ otherwise known as ¨The World´s Most Dangerous ...
Bolivia - Land of a Million Landscapes
This is a top pick! ... ...no heat....no electricity other than generators....... Not what I expected, not what they expected but the scenery from Uyuni, Bolivia to the Chilean border, where I was dropped off before it even opened....in the middle of absolutely nowhere, in ...
In Bolivia & those white piles of powder are salt
This is a top pick! We came down a little more in altitude to the town of Uyuni where the main activity here is for daytrips out to the salt flats. Uyuni is the gateway to the world's largest salt flats, which is nearly 12,000 square kilometres at a altitude of just over ...
Getting high in the highest Capital in the World
This is a top pick! We really enjoyed La Paz. Apart from the lung stinging polution and shortage of oxygen the worlds highest capital City is fantastic. Its full of the lively street stalls and colourful chaos which we have missed since Central America. The highlight ...
Isla del Sol in Copacabana, Bolivia
This is a top pick! ... travelogue. So, mom, I proudly present to you, with no further adieu, the second chapter in my South American Adventures: Bolivia and Beyond (I hope you like it) My trip from Puno, Peru to Copacabana, Bolivia was excruciatingly mild and safe. ...
Sleet + Rain + Speed + Death Road = Awesomeness
This is a top pick! ... a few beers and had a good catch up session. The next day, we were off to do some extreme downhill mountain biking down Bolivia’s death road. The death road is the North Yungas Road that until recently was used as a real carriageway out of La Paz. ...
Bizarre scenery in the World's Largest Salt Flat
This is a top pick! ... entry. Just scroll through the images I managed to capture and you'll get a glimpse of how spectacular southern Bolivia really is. Here's a quick taste: Quantifiable Summary As another twist for this entry, instead of the usual ...
Amazon Jungle Tour - Day 2
This is a top pick! It was light, I was alive, the last thing I remember is shining the light at the huge spider that appeared next to my bed, and seeing two of them, the noise of the cockroaches running around was also bizarrely loud as opposed to silent, I shouted E, she ...
Josie Ends in Bolivia
This is a top pick! ... the night – full blown food poisoning……combine with cold/flu and altitude sickness…..ahhhhhh……..Josie hates Bolivia. Then the collectivio to return to La Paz. These mini vans are MINI – vans. ...

This is a top pick! ... get some tablets for a cough and cold. We headed back to the room as the looks I was getting in particular were bizarre. In Bolivia I am getting stared at a lot due to the beard, they don’t like them here apparently but add that to a perverse outfit ...
