Hitchhikers @Tilcara, Jujuy, Argentina, May 22, 2018

Now you know that I’m driving but when I was preparing for this trip, I was reviewing different modes of transportation and hitchhiking was actually one of the options. I remember reading several posts by hitchhiking travelers and thinking about the pros and cons. I haven’t done much hitchhiking but I assume it’s usually a physically demanding process. So I try to help when I see hitchhikers but especially because I’m traveling solo, it’s not easy to stop and open up my car to strangers. In...

Valle de la luna, La Paz, Bolivia, May 12, 2018

On a Friday, I decided to spend in La Paz until Monday instead of driving South. That was to make sure to finish some logistical stuff with ease and to experience the city further. And the latter included an afternoon trip to Valle de la Luna, or the Moon Valley. Google argued that it was about 18 minutes of driving to get there, but it took me over an hour. I think I was caught in the weekend rush hour. The pictures must speak for themselves....
