La Paz






Hello friends and family!
I know its been quite some time and many many adventures have been had! Currently I am working in a night club in La Paz,Bolivia and although will be leaving within the week to check out Santiago, Chile I have several job offers to return to if it doesnt work out in the south. I have made some amazing friends and truely love it but as things move on, so must I for the time being. I look forward to the last bit of nocturnal life before heading to Peru for a few days to visit a couple friends and then on down.
I must say La Paz is a one of a kind place with the snow covered mountain crowning the city bustling with a mix of indigenous spirit and urban culture. Fireworks and "silent" protests march daily and church bells remind you that someone is always awake. I find my peace of mind on the rooftop of a 200 year old building filled with textured wall paper, velvet maroon draperie, creepy paintings, gold trimmed mirrors and contrastingly enough: mohawks. My breathing eases as I have finally adjusted to the high altitude and we rejoice to see the last couple days of rainfall. Unfortunately Bolivia is at the verge of a major water crisis and we are all doing are part to conserve what we can.
Although I would love to continue to write, the sun is rising again and that means bedtime. I send my love and thanks for reading!
