So I have a confession to make: I actually have two travel blogs/diaries. One is for myself personally (this one), which allows me to be fully honest and rant and rave about not only my travels, but my personal life. And the other one is for the general public and people interested in travel (as well as camping and backpacking) tips. My goal was to put the more personal (AKA: LONG) revelations here and put the kinder, more PG-rated abbreviated versions on the other journal. Check it out at:
Since the internet in South America was so shitty, I didn’t have enough time to fill in both blogs equally. Hell, I’ve been back for a month in the States and I’m STILL filling out my travel blog from South America now! So if you want to learn more about traveling through Bolivia (and Peru). please also check out:
