The Land of Opportunity

You can pretty much do whatever you want in some of these countries. In Bolivia, they are extremely lax on most rules. If you want to drink in the cab, no problem. Feel like offering the security guard at the airport a drink? He´ll accept.

I just returned from a trek into the Amazon jungle with some people I met in La Paz and these guys will try anything. I have pictures of amateur Cobra and aligator wrangling where the guide just sat back and let them do whatever they wanted. Crazy stuff.

Anyway, the trip to the jungle was really fun where we went fishing for Piranhas, fed monkeys and searched for snakes.

Upon my return to La Paz tomorrow, I´m heading straight for the salt plains which should be pretty cool. I´ll update the post if when I get back from that trip.

By the way, landing a plane on grass in the jungle is not for the feint of heart.
