Bolivia

After working for too long without a real break, I decided to go on a long planned backpack trip. After changing the departure date and the destination several times, I decided to go to South America. Starting in Colombia, then Peru and finishing in Bolivia. At least, this was the plan but once on tour, you never know what to expect.
This report is for all people asking how I am doing, but also for those who are thinking about doing something similar. I hope I can inspire them.

Planned is a two-week trip to Bolivia, mainly in the Altiplano with a short detour half way into the jungle. Not sure whether I will be able to attach photos during the trip, so make sure to visit the pages later again.

Hello - 5 more days!!!

On the 12th of September we are setting off!
Our plan is to travel round the world for a period of 10 months.

1st stop: Thailand (1 month) and cambodia

2nd stop: Via Singapore (overland) to Australia where we plan to stay for approximately 4-5 months.

3rd stop: New Zealand (2 months)
(north and south island)

4th stop: South America (approx. 3 months)
(Chile, Argentina, Brazil, Peru, Ecuador and if time and money allows we might visit costa rica)

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.

Backpacking in South America then 5 months at uni in Brazil, despite the fact I don't yet speak Portuguese. Bum.
