We
decided to splurge on our nights bus today, 10 hours, from La Paz to
the desolate town of Uyuni. Todo Turismo has the best reputation, so

Driving into the city of La Paz is literally like dropping into a huge canyon with sides 1000M steep, stacked high with cubicle mud-brick homes stacked next to and on top of each other. During the day, the thousands of tiny brown boxes blend in with ... Read more >
