Day 45-46, It’s a small world after all . . .

The following takes place between Tuesday, January 11 and Wednesday, January 12, 2011

I have been on the road for about a month and a half. It was bound to happen that I would start running into the same people over and over again. Ben from Lima I met again in Cuzco. Patrick from Arequipa, Cuzco again. The Argentinian boys.

It makes for some good times when you meet up again. Lots of “OMG! How are you doing? Did you see this? Oh, man! That sounds like it was fun.” You’re on this huge trip, away from family and friends. Seeing a familiar face, even one you had only known for a day or two is comforting.

I’m in Bolivia now. It’s still a small world after all.

Day 44, Lake Titicaca Bolivia Style

The following takes place on  Monday, January 10

There seems to be a consensus among traveler’s I’ve talked to, as well as among those online, the Lake Titicaca is much nicer on the Bolivian side. Not that this motivated me to check it out from Bolivia, but it was certainly an interesting observation from people.

Now, whether this pre-conception would eventually taint my final thoughts, I’m not sure. I like to think that I’m very open minded and can make up my own mind even with such previous visitors thoughts swimming around in my head.

I guess we’ll see.
