We arrived in Puno around 9.30pm and we had an hour there before R + L were continuing straight to Cusco on the overnight bus. However, I thought it would be a good idea to break every travelling rule there is on my own, im generally quite a relaxed individual but i clearly decided my nerves needed a test. So having changed my bus ticked to Cusco to the following day I ended up paying upfront for a hotel and a tour to the floating islands without so much as a re...

The journey was broken up at one point though by the need to cross a couple of hundred metres of open lake. All the passengers had to disembark and pay the 20p to get taken across in a small speedboat as we watched the bus get floated across on what is basically a giant raft before getting back on board. Rachel and Liam had booked an apartment for the night which was amazing - with fantastic views, circular beds and a jacuzzi. I was booked into the hostel next ...

After the swimming pool i went to the mosquito bar in town for a couple of drinks with an Austalian and 2 locals, but when they decided to head on to a club at 2am i thought it was best to get at least a little sleep before the 8.30am start. The pampa tour started with a 3 hour journey in a 7 seater over what is at best a dirt road. However, on the way we did see a 3 toed sloth slowly making its way across the road, and with that the wildlife tour started. Soon ...

Having flown into Rurrenabaque we were instantly hit by the heat and humidity of the jungle, which was a marked contrast from La Paz when we were 3500m higher up! After checking in i walked into town to organise an Amazon tour and booked a 5 day trip with Berraca del Medidi. After i had a traditional Bolivian fish dish with mel and Gosta before drinks at the Mosquito bar in town. In the morning we were to go on sepèrate tours so we said our goodbyes again. Ne...
