I asked for your help. And you helped! How great! In total 2000 € will reach the Bolivian children. Thanks a lot to everybody who followed my call for help and donated! Muchas gracias a todos!

I am still shocked by the poverty and working conditions, especially of the children in Bolivia. So I decided to ask for your help! I will double every donation from you that reaches the non profit organization Kindernothilfe (with the keyword “Z 4491, 4542840”) before the end of May 2011 (fine print: maximum total amount from my side is 1000 €).

The Salar de Uyuni: Biggest salt flat of the world. An amazing landscape, both at sunset and in bright sunlight. Getting there by quad was adding some adrenaline to the beauty.

On the way down we stopped in Sucre. And stayed a bit longer than planned, as I did not feel too good. Sucre is a nice colonial city and we stayed in the Pachamama hostel which was perfect for a few relaxed days.

Nuestra Señora de La Paz. Big city. More than two million people living here. As I normally don’t like big cities I was skeptical. However, it was totally different this time. I don’t know why, but I loved the city and would return anytime!

Next stop was Rurrenabaque. The next three days I went into the Pampa near Santa Rosa. An awesome landscape with a lot of wildlife.

After two relaxed days in La Paz it was time for some action. So we decided to go for some bike riding on the North Yungas Road, also known as “Camino de la Muerte” or “Death Road”.
