A Vacation From My Vacation


I just came back from two days in Coroico, a small mountain town three hours outside of La Paz. On the ride there, my ears popped as it was the first time since being here that I have descended below 3400 meters.

A major plus to a lower altitude was much warmer weather and the ability to see other living things that depend on oxygen again, like birds and squirrels (and less fortunately, mosquitoes and gnats).



We stayed at a cute eco-lodge called Sol y Luna. We sat by the pool, hiked, practiced yoga, read novels. A nice getaway before the more basic leg of my trip.
