Welcome to the Bolivia Backpackers Series! A 6 part series where I will be sharing stories from the 3 months I spent backpacking through Bolivia. Delicious street food, insane bus rides, magical landscapes and more. Jaguars, llamas, monkeys galore! I will be presenting the episodes in a story telling narrative through my accounts. Tied into my accounts will include observations, tidbits I learned, questions I asked, questions I answered, questions I haven’t answered. The narrative will include travel tips and insider information. I took many notes, I kept tabs on my psyche, and took many pictures and videos. This format is new for Dustin, The Wind podcast and I’m excited to explore this way of sharing what I have learned and experienced with you. I hope it gives an experienced traveler the confidence to take their travels to another level, a curious but hesitant traveler the confidence they need to get out for an adventure, and a vicarious armchair traveler some home adventure. I hope to bring the country Bolivia to life in the best way I can based on my experiences and what I learned. The people, the landscapes, and the culture. I will also share thoughts I had during my 3 months. Times when I was happy, times when I was sad, times when I was confused. My happy thoughts and sad, my anxious thoughts and my excited thoughts, my lonely contemplations and my social exasperations. Join me on the ground in La Paz and follow along during my first week in Bolivia. Seeing, learning, adjusting, adapting to a new culture in a new country. New people and a new kind of travel for me. Come along with me to the best street food La Paz has to offer, the unique telefericos, a World Cup Qualifier match, El Altos wild market and the Flying Cholitas Wrestlers. Sketchy street dudes and charismatic locals. It's all in La Paz and more. Vaaaaaamos! Enjoy!
