“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” - Mark Twain

Beautiful Bolivia
Hats, hats and more hats! If only those sales ladies really would have let me take their photo?!? Can you see them?
Tiwanaku, the worlds second oldest civilization, existing almost 3000 years before the Incas
The sprawling Salar de Uyuni
White churches, public squares and kids playing soccer... Bolivia in a nutshell.
Yes, I am off again, for a mental health break from job searching. I've headed down south to Bolivia, tucked up in the Andes at 12,000 feet above sea level! Yes, that means I'm high up in the mountains! Its beautiful, traditional and oh so very alive. Bolivia has the largest indigenous population in Latin American with between 50-60% of its people having pure Indian blood. It makes for fascinating people watching. Its a country with even more hats!

Fantastic photos! Can't wait to hear about the trip.
Beautiful pictures! Not what I expected (the place, not that the pictures are beautiful).
Oooh! More fabulous photos! :)
The lunar landscape of Bolivia is a complete surprise. The pictures are stunningly still. The saturated colors are thrilling. And your commentary is fascinating. Thank You. JE M
