South America

a trip by Lauren Takehana
From: May 31st 2011
Until: July 17th 2011

So the adventure starts in La Paz where I'll spend the first couple days taking in the city and acclimatizing to the altitude. The first weekend I'll be biking "The World's Most Dangerous Road" and then the following Monday work begins. We'll spend four weeks working in the Arco Iris Hospital in La Paz. During that time we will be taking Spanish lessons and taking weekend trips around Bolivia. Then in the beginning of July its off to Peru to hike Machu Picchu and hang out in Cusco. After that we'll have just about 2 weeks in Ecuador to visit the beaches and trek in the Amazon rainforest!!
