Hotel Regina 3 Cochabamba

The day before leaving Coroico Jessy and I decided to make our fist stop Cochabamba, a large city seven hours from La Paz. Jessy´s best friend Tany is of Bolivian descent, with her parents moving to the US from Cochabamba after their first child was born. Tany still has family there and was insistent that we pay them a visit. Originally we had planned to skip Cochabamba, because it is out of the way and our time is very limited if we want ...

... for the secondhand clothes most of all. <br><br>Spanish lessons continued on for me throughout the course of the month, with my teacher Patricia and I having many interesting and varied conversations on numerous topics such as Bolivian culture, festivals, food and drink; to the health care system; to popular soap operas; just to name a few... with of course the majority of which being explained to me in spanish, and i can proudly say ...

... pyjamas" luckilly in English with Spanish subtitles. We both had our hair cut locally which was a really relaxing experience. I got a really good cut and blow dry for 4 pounds! So then decided to carry on and have a French manicure for my hands and feet. So nice that you can pamper yourself for so little! Cochabamba is also the place to shop from fruit and veg markets selling delicious exotic fruits to the huge market which ...

... things as the importance of vaccinations and regular monthly checkups. Now that was an interesting two days for a variety of reasons... One: my spanish is still so incredibly limited i didnt understand much of what the nursed were saying to me, making me feel stupid, and im quite sure they thought i actually was. Two: turns out they do five years of university to be a fully trained nurse in this coutnry, and therefore having only completed three ...

We almost all jumed in and enjoyed the experience for 20mins, until it was time for breakie. Best breakie in Bolivia! Not necessraily the food (although it was pretty yummy) but the whole shabang. The view, the baths, the company, the food. Hmmm. We the continued on a Little further south through another desert, with mountains of every posible shade of red and Brown, past ...

... Siden jeg ikke hadde spist noe den dagen (det var soendag og umulig aa finne noe sted som hadde aapent!!) og han hadde veldig snille oyene, ble jeg med. Det var jo tross alt midt paa dagen, midt i sentrum. Vi dro paa et sted som paa mystisk vis dukka opp rett rundt hjoernet, og prata i over to timer! Det var kjempekoselig. Han fortalte at han egentlig var fra Santa Cruz, men at fordi han var tilhenger av Evo Morales hadde han opplevd saa mye rasisme der at han til slutt hadde ...

... about if they cry, fight, climb up massive towers, steal toys or anything like that. So i gave them as much attention as i could, although of course it was never enough, and it was very hard work. The kids would devise ingenious ways to get my attention away from others, such as nipping me, shouting in my ear, fighting with other kids, locking themselves in a locker, biting, spitting, hitting in the testicles, and jumping on me. This would happen ...
