Today was a very early start as I had to be at the Condor Trekkers office at 5am, this meant a 4am wake up after only getting to bed at 1am. Luckily I had packed my things the night before and so I was able to grab my things, head up to the kitchen, do a short 20 minute workout, have a cup of tea and then head to the office.The dorm room was actually ok and reasonably quiet, but the party crowd along with the lack of space I am not overly fond of and when I retur...

The bus took an extra 2+ hours and we rolled into Sucre at around 9am.

I then headed to the markets to buy some vegetables, chicken and mince ready for my last opportunities to cook for a little while. Unfortunately when I went to roast the chicken I found Nyrzha was out of gas and I wouldn't be cookin...

Today is my last day on Rurrenabaque and I am very thankful for that, although it has been nice there is absolutely nothing to do here and the last two days I have been twiddling my thumbs. As today was Sunday there was a bit of a market on down near the river so I went for a wonder around. Like most of the markets here in Bolivia they sell used clothes, fruits, vegetables and everything else in between. There were lots of old ladies selling snack foods like donu...
