11 - Tupiza

Wie im letzten Post erwaehnt haben wir noch nicht wirklich viel bolivianisches Geld. Von daher besteht heute Prioritaet uns ersteinmal mit Geld zu versorgen. Sind in die Stadtmitte gelaufen, wo zunaechst nur ein Automat der Banco Union stand, wie bereits in Villazon weigerte sich dieser Automat...

10. Tag - Iruya - La Quiaca - Villazon - Tupiza

Nach dem Ausfstehen war meine erste Aktion meine Treckingschuhe, welche sich mittlerweile vollstaendig zerlegt hatten, in den Muell zu schmeissen. Phillip und Peter besorgten ein reichhaltiges Fruehstueck (Sandwiches mit Ei) und wir setzten uns damit auf die Terasse des Hostels. Dort...

Pass the salt please.

Wed 15th-Fri 17th Dec Wednesday We woke early to pack bags and went to the same restaurant as the night before as the girls said they had a great buffet breakfast. Which they did. I filled up on scrambled eggs and cereal with yoghurt, pancakes and tea. Pete had left over pizza from dinner. We...

Mind your metal

Mon 13th- Tue 14h Dec We were up early on Monday to catch a bus to Uyuni, pronounced Uni. This particular bus had all the special features: no-toilet, no-air conditioning and no-leg room. The uncomfortable ride was made worse by the mass of dust that would come through any gap in the bus,...

Never look a gift horse in the mouth- they bite!

Sat 11th-Mon 13th Dec Saturday we were up early to catch a seven hour bus to Tupiza which is located near the bottom of Bolivia. The bus was again terrible, with no leg space and if you dared put your seat back it pushed forward so you had even less room to move. There was no air con and it was...

Miners town

10th-11th Dec Red eye is a 8pm- 6.30am bus. Lucky we had the greatest seats that went back quite a bit and the bus even had a pull down part from the back of the seat in front so you had like an actual bed. This was the first class of buses only because the bus companies name was ‘First...

The big city

Sat 3rd- Thurs 9th Dec We hopped on the bumpiest four hour bus ride ever to get to La Paz which wasn’t the most comfortable, they should make a Disney themed ride: Buses of Bolivia; then make franchise movies staring us both and Johnny Depp as the crazed, daring bus driver. We did however...

What blog?

Welcome to Bolivia!!!

3rd-4th Dec Again we must apoligise for our choice of hostels and hotels that promise wi-fi and they don't work!!! Because of this we have had to post three entries at once, so scroll down till you get to the bus trip and start from there. This is Rochelles nightmare and frustrations! Ahhhhh!!!...

leaves in the wind (martes, 12 octubre)

Yesterday I had been planning on biking on the ´World´s Most Dangerous Road´from La Paz to Oroico, but due to the rain from the day before, and the fact that I did not feel like waking up early, I changed my plans again. Prior to coming to Bolivia I´d read about a place called Alexander Café,...
