Day 3 saw us have a little bit of a sleep in (8am) and then we were back on the road. The highlight for me came when we saw our first glimpse of a salt flat. It looked exactly like snow and the effect was otherworldly. On the third night we stayed ... Read more >

Day two saw us begrudgingly get out of bed at 4am! Not a particularly nice start to the day. But we were happy we had when we got to our lunch spot. It was a hot spring in the middle of nowhere and it was lovely to sit in for a while. Today we saw the ... Read more >

So Thursday last week saw me getting in a jeep for a four day trip from Tupiza. Tupiza is a nice wee town, very wild west and is where Butch Cassidy and the Sundance kid came to their demise (or very near). I watched the movie to celebrate being in ... Read more >

After crossing from Bolivia at 7am we had a eight hour wait for the train to Tupiza. The Bolivian border town is a dirty, dusty and very basic town. The wait was long and cold; the food was bad and we were wrecked. We eventually got the train ... Read more >

I was in the middle of a trip to Bolivia when I got this massive headache and my body felt like it was freezing even though it was hot outside. I began to shiver uncontrollably, and my chattering teeth almost caused me to bite my tongue off. I went ... Read more >
