Excellent blog, you open travelers! I'm so thrilled that you liked La Paz--so many give it bad press, but you were open and discovered its glories and unusual taste sensations, plus you got to see Evo Morales--well done.

I always stay in an ancient hotel near Plaza Murillo, where there's always something happening, and hang out on beautiful Calle Jaen. I'm so looking forward to the telefericos that just started running after my last visit. Have a grand time in Cusco, one of the most charming cities in the world! If you get down to Arequipa, let me know, and I'll show you around another lovely city that I adore. Hasta luego!
