Bolivia – On Travel & Photography

Posted on September 22, 2013 by Carlota Martins | 4 Comments

We arrived tired and a little bit cranky to La Paz, Bolivia. For me it was one of those travel moments when you simply want to get some sleep and spend a few relaxing days doing very little before getting back on the intense travel style I grew accustomed to.

The Salar de Uyuni and the Cordillera De Chichas – South West Bolivia

Posted on March 9, 2012 by skinnywench | 36 Comments

If ever there was a place where one could imagine being on a different planet, it has to be the in the surreal high altitude landscapes of Southwest Bolivia and the spectacular blinding white salt flats of Uyuni. Mud bubbling geysers, volcanoes (active and extinct) towering over vegetation, bereft desert puffing smoke signals out into the ether, multi-coloured half exploded…
