No hablo muy bien espanol: Tracing the Inca Footsteps- Cusco and the Inca Trail
http://nohablomuybienespanol.blogspot.com/2010/08/tracing-inca-footsteps-cusco-and-inca.html
No hablo muy bien espanol. My journey into Latin American. Saturday, 28 August 2010. Tracing the Inca Footsteps- Cusco and the Inca Trail. The most annoying thing about the city is that it is very touristy, which you notice even more when you have come from Bolivia which is completely the opposite! You cannot walk through the main Plaza (Plaza de Armas) here without being constantly harrassed by an array of people offering their wares, massages, restaurants, clubs etc to you, which can get pretty tiring.

No hablo muy bien espanol: Time to say goodbye
http://nohablomuybienespanol.blogspot.com/2010/09/time-to-say-goodbye.html
No hablo muy bien espanol. My journey into Latin American. Sunday, 12 September 2010. Time to say goodbye. My last week in South America saw me take in more places in beautiful Peru. First stop was Arequipa, Peru's second biggest city, also known as the white city. The night bus to Arequipa was awful. It was so hot it was ridiculous and during the journey the man in front of me reclined his seat so much that I could not actually move! There are plenty of nice terraces to enjoy a drink or have a meal in t...

No hablo muy bien espanol: More "near death" experiences in La Paz- Death Road and San Pedro Prison
http://nohablomuybienespanol.blogspot.com/2010/08/more-near-death-experiences-in-la-paz.html
No hablo muy bien espanol. My journey into Latin American. Thursday, 19 August 2010. More "near death" experiences in La Paz- Death Road and San Pedro Prison. La Paz is host to the road known as the most dangerous in the world a.k.a. death road, so obviously the ideal thing to do would be to jump on a bike to descend its 64km. There are many agencies that run trips along the death road, we decided to go with one of the oldest and most trusted (its not called death road for nothing! After a few minutes of...

No hablo muy bien espanol: Not as chilly in Chile
http://nohablomuybienespanol.blogspot.com/2010/08/not-as-chilly-in-chile.html
No hablo muy bien espanol. My journey into Latin American. Tuesday, 3 August 2010. Not as chilly in Chile. Santiago was a nice city. Not as beautiful or as much to do as other big cities in South America but it was ample for a few days. There are a few really nice plazas surrounded with beautiful buildings. The main plaza was filled with street performers and really terrible artists displaying their wares, worst of all was a portrait of Leonardo di Caprio which looked more like Ricky Gervais. One thing t...

No hablo muy bien espanol. My journey into Latin American. Thursday, 27 May 2010. We finally arrived in Toro Toro in the evening, at which point our driver rather embarrasingly asked directions to our hostel when we were parked right outside it- The huge sign outside obviously not a big give away to him. The hostel was really nice, very clean, nice room, staff were lovely. They made us a delicious dinner, I had vegetarian lasagne which was really yummy after all that hiking, even better enjoyed in one...

No hablo muy bien espanol: Salar de Uyuni
http://nohablomuybienespanol.blogspot.com/2010/08/salar-de-uyuni.html
No hablo muy bien espanol. My journey into Latin American. Saturday, 7 August 2010. I was pretty nervous about crossing back into Bolivia due to the change in the immigration rules. I was unsure whether I would be allowed back in, and if I was allowed whether I would have to pay an extortionate amount for the privilege! My fears abated as we approached the border crossing though, literally a shack in the middle of the desert with one guy manning it! What was smelly though was the geysers, the sulfur smel...
