A long time ago I decided to travel to South America - to Argentina or Chile. First no money as a student, then no time as a (hard-)worker. But now my little brother and his friends are spending 6 months over there on their globe-trotter-trip. So no poor excuse anymore. I pack my shoes.
My flight starts from Francfort/M, Germany to Santiago de Chile and returns from La Paz, Bolivia. We will backpack from Santiago up to the North until the boarder travelling by bus or train.

Rurrenabaque (short "Rurre") is the town you reach if you survive the Death Road from La Paz to Coroico. I am glad we could see it. It is a small but agreeable town with beautiful colors especially at sunset on the River Beni. No asphalt on some of the roads, red terra, colorful places. Since it is the starting point of many excursions in the Amazon basin, quite a lot of different nationalities are to be seen
Here we had a delicious breaktfast with Yungas coffee to recover from the drive
River Beni
Forgot the name
Funny: the shops. Some of them are so diversified that you never know what you all can find. I would never have suspected to burn a CD in a cloth-beverages-books store! Can be very practical
One of the things that amazed me the most here was the number of motorbikes waiting for customers at the bus station. They are used as taxis
