Bolivia
Welcome to Bolivia!
Bienvenidos a Bolivia!
Bolivia is one of the few countries in South America that does not have access to the sea. Accordingly, we expect it to be even more mountainous than many of the countries on our trip. But not only that, Bolivia borders Brazil to the east and therefore also has tropical regions. There are also many different ethnic groups, which are even enshrined in Bolivia’s constitution and respected accordingly. How many different cultures will we discover on our trip? – We’ll find out and publish our blog posts below. However, the fact that Bolivia is probably one of the poorest countries in South America makes things a little more difficult for the Bolivians. This does not detract us from our trip through Bolivia and we are looking forward to seeing lots of beautiful nature, the people and the peculiarities of Bolivia.
Let’s go to Bolivia! Our experiences and adventures are listed below for you to read.

Santa Cruz
On our journey eastwards in Bolivia, we soon come across the next big city: Santa Cruz de la Sierra. As always with longer distances, we make several stages out of it so as not to get into a driving frenzy. And there are other beautiful places to see along the way....
Sucre
We take you readers on a leisurely tour through the capital of Bolivia. Lots of cafés, beautiful colonialist buildings and a relaxed atmosphere await us in Sucre. We find all this in a moderate, spring-like climate at an altitude of just under 3000m in the foothills...
