Chile - Bolivia 2006

Travel time: March / April 2006 | by Valerie Couarraze

Just arrived in Santiago

First thing (and one of the most important one): I found my brother again! So good to see him after 7 months.

He just looks a bit different; I had a hard time to recognize him, he has now long hair and a bear...

This is where we are: CHILI, right now somewhere on a roof

The cathedral on the Plaza de las Armas, the most animated place of Santiago. Here the typical contrast of olb building and sky-scraper.

Nothing but the sun reflection

Santiago from the top of the hill in the parc Cerro Santa Lucia at sunset.

Very interesting construction

The three crazy guys and the nice girl I am travelling with 3,5 weeks long

Well, Santiago is not the most beautiful ciy I have seen, but it has an interesting flair and culture.

And at sunset almost everything looks marvellous

especially if you are surrounded by huge mountains...

Los Andes

The trip

Description:

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.
