Tupiza

Tupiza is a little city in the south of Bolivia and there would not be much to see or do if it was not for the spectacular surroundings. The first day after the Uyuni-tour, we did not do much as we still had to deal with all the impressions of the last days. So, I went to a cyber café to update my blog and read my e-mails a bit and guess who I met there? Sabine and Jochem, the Dutch couple we did the Inca Trail with! What a nice coincidence that was.
Anyway, next day, Julie, the girl from Quebec, and me went on a two-day horse-tour, guided by José. I had Rosario, a beautiful horse, to my disposition and I have to say I found out horseriding is not really my cup of tea! We rode through gorgeous landscapes, picknicked in a beautiful place and saw amazing little villages but when horses trot or gallop they are really uncomfortable! I had not imagined horseriding being so intense and tiring, so I was very happy when we arrived back in Tupiza on the second day.

Luckily, the landscapes made up very much for the horseriding and we felt like we were in an old Western, without weapons though.

¡Hasta pronto!
