The best thing about countries like Bolivia are the black market -- yesterday, I went to a nontourist market that sells all contraband stuff. Sunglasses, electronics, all kinds of home goods sell for dirt, dirt cheap. I bought fabulous "designer" sunglasses for all of $6.
Today, Orieta and I head off to Cochabamba, her home town. The third largest city, Cochabamba lies in the center of Bolivia and hosts what is supposedly South America's largest open air market. Lonely Planet calls it nerveshattering ...
We'll see how I survive!
