Hello, We left La Paz on a night bus to Potosí, the world's highest city at 4100m, and that's about that…It used to be a very rich city because of the silver mines, but today there isn't much to do. Next day we took a shared taxi to Sucre, 165km away through high mountains. Sucre is stunning, feels like you are in Barcelona or Seville. It is also called the white city of the Americas. We had decided with the taxi dude to pick us up at 3pm, because ...

We are now in Bolivia and I have to say that it is our favorite country so far. It s very cheap and the people are nice and there are a lot of cool things to do.We entered Bolivia via lake Titicaca and stayed in Copacabana for 3 nights. We stayed in a hotel with cable TV for a fiver a night. Copacabana has lots of cool restaurants and cafes. The one day we took the boat, very very slow boat, out to Isla Del Sol and did a 3h hike over the islands. Beautiful place....

Another Long-drag bus ride from Cusco to Nasca, 14 hours overnight through Mountains and Desert terrain.

Very amusing to try and watch the stewardess negotiate a bus rolling form one side to the other along a mountain pass, trying to ...

We staying at a great hostel, with warm water showers, duvets and good food! With a view over Cusco. Thursday morning we started our 4day hike to Machu Picchu. We were ...

Hey! I have to say its hard being in Miami on a budget of $100 a day...We prepared in Honduras and bought a bottle of Rum for $2, so atleast we had the drinking-part sorted. We arrived quite late to our budget hotel, after a 1.5-2h buss journey from the airport. No taxis this time. We got a completely new understanding of the term a double room with shared bathroom...We had a locked door in our room and thought it just connected with the next room, but when Ph...
