Travel Info We are some advantages of living in La Paz, Bolivia? Travel Tips For me, a person who loves that city, lived their for most of my life, the best thing of La Paz, is the people. Although the city might be small for many people, you cant take the fact that you find so many diffrent kinds of people to have adventures with. You will get many surprises in the way. Also the views form the city as simple spectacular in everyway. Nightlife might that be that crazy as others but you will enjoy the craziness of the youth. Others From what I hear, Bolivians are very nice people, but as a whole, their country is very poor, relying on Coca (the plant cocaine comes from) to make a living. It won't be the type of place for you if you are a person who likes being pampered, as some parts of Bolivia still do not have electricity. But do not let this get in the way of seeing just how beautiful a country Bolivia can be. Also, La Paz is about 10,000 feet above sea level. You can get altitude sickness when you first get there. If you need to pass a drug test for any reason, DO NOT chew on coca leaves or drink coca tea to get rid of your altitude sickness. Books on South American culture, people who have been there, etc. To name just as few: 1. The people. 2. The altitude: good for your blood red cells. 3. Food: organically grown, cheap. 4. Inexpensive cost of living. 5. The Illimani: a majestic snow capped mountain that fills up your window. 6. Cultural life: folk music, live concerts. 7. Titicaca Lake (the highest in the world) is close by. should I continue...? (Mind you, I'm not a Bolivian so there's a great deal of objectivity in what I'm telling you). |
