If you are traveling around Bolivia 🇧🇴 you definitely have to visit the Uyuni Salt Desert! Absolutely incredible place: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-POwh-TYt_yk.html 💯💯💯 #BoliviasSaltDesert
Hi, when did you arrive at La Paz airport? I plan a trip to Uyuni, but the flight arrives at La Paz at 2AM. Is the custom open at 2AM? how long does it take to go through the custom (assume I don't have a visa and have to pay after landing)? Thanks in advance.
Tive o prazer de estar em La Paz semana passada! Amei demais a minha experiência. A cidade é linda e colorida! Caótica igual a todos os centros urbanos, mas linda! Que cenário lindo temos dos teleféricos, né? 🥰 Parabéns pelo vídeo!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Las historias de tus viajes me fascinan y que hayas estado en la ciudad Maravilla de La Paz lo mejor 🤩✨. Los lugares a los que vas suenan exóticos y La Paz es así y te regala hermosas vistas y lugares mágicos ✨🏔️🏙️✨🌆. Estoy agradecido por tu visita y mostrar un poco de nuestra quería ciudad de La Paz ❤💚, espero que haya sido grata tu visita y regreses algún día , de siempre serás bienvenida 😎🤙🇧🇴🇧🇴
I live in Bolivia and work remotely without any issues. I would say that maybe cafes and hotels are not the best for WiFi, but there are CoWork spaces that are very suitable for remote workers and visitors. I would suggest checking CoWork places in La Paz (I can recommend ones in Cochabamba - also some coffee places in Cochabamba have a very decent WiFi connection)
Great trip! Loved the video. The “crazy” houses you saw in El Alto are called “cholets”. Cholets are owned by the indigenous bourgeoisie. I’ve even seen hotel cholets where you can book a stay. The “chirimoya” icecream you had is from the soursop fruit, one of my fav icecreams too. La Paz is so diverse, glad you had a great time.
Agreed, LaPaz is shocking for tourists and unique in both bad and good ways, also due poor urban planning some districts struggling to keep up with population growth thats one reason El Alto overthrown and got #2 city in population behind #1 SantaCruzdelaSierra.
I enjoyed watching this episode. I am sold next on my bucket list❤❤. I like how to tell where to stay and where is not safe. I have travel anxiety especially to new places and this gave me comfort. Subbing for sure ❤❤
Streets don't receive proper maintenance, that's why drivers don't respect catwalks, but they do respect traffic lights. Most streets are narrow because of the initial planning from colonial times, making driving a headache sometimes. The cable car is the real MVP here, since it can get you close to your destination almost everywhere in La Paz.
This city is at the same altitude as mount fuji, almost twice as high as the next highest city. The amount of solar radiation exposure is very high, so it is very interesting to see people can adapt. There is also very little air for most visitors, but those native to the region have also adapted. I would not recommend living there as a foreigner, but a fascinating place
Just found this video now while searching for La Paz walkthroughs. You did an excellent job with showing us most of the main parts of the city. What was the area that you recommended to stay in within the city of La Paz? The area that you felt was most safe but also close to the downtown. I want to travel there on a budge so i don't want to spend a ton of money on a fancy hotel room.
Hi :) thank you so much! Very good question...it is a difficult one. I think I actually would recommend staying in the downtown. It is definitely not as dangerous as I thought it will be. Close to everything, loads of food places. And I think it was quite budget friendly. I remember picking other location because of safety stuff but once I visited I realised it is not that bad. Two other areas that I would recommend that are close, but safish and on budget are: the are around Selina hostel (apparently one of the safest areas around there) and then Hotel Europa because that was like a business district. I think just in general La Paz is not the place where to wander around during late hours, like doesn't matter where you stay. During the day it is quite ok almost in all areas, apart from the proper dangerous ones that are further away. Like around downtown and then stretching back to Selina, that whole area is ok. If you have more questions or want to clarify this, DM on Instagram, I will send you screenshots an all haha :)
Great Blog Aliki i can feel your energy of been in a bustling capital city of the andes mountains of Bolivia....!! love the music also whose the artist and song....?
@@AlikiTravelBlog I’m sure you do.... if you could please find out would greatly appreciate it...?...would like to use the same music in a post of mine.. Thanks
Hello, Aliki! Your channel is amazing and so insipiring, I would say "insipiring life" in all us. One question: are you from the US? It seems to me you have an American accent Besos
Thank you so much 😍 Uuu interesting, no I am not. I am originally from Latvia but the last past 5 years I have been living in Gibraltar so I guess my accent is a mix of Latvian, British English and Spanish haha
You mentioned the bad internet connection in Bolivia for digital nomads and it is a struggle for remote workers, but how was it in Ecuador and Peru? Was it good enough in Ecuador and Peru for remote workers?
Yes, Peru and Ecuador in general were good! Of course there will always be specific accommodations that do not prfioritize wifi so definitely check specifically for each, but as country in general the wifi was good. Bolivia to be fair was the only country that I visited in South America that had this issue.

Grew up in Chicago. Half Bolivian, so I have visited often. The Teleferico is so much like the Chicago L. You should visit, have a bunuelo and api or saltena and Pepsi and just walk around.
Aliki te falto conocer otraa ciudades cosmopolitas y diferentes conociste el altiplano Boliviano pero te falta otras zonas geograficas que te van a encantar los Valles ciudades como Cochabamba y Sucre capital y en el oriente la bella y Calurosa Santa Cruz de la sierra.

Ecuador is indeed beautiful but ...organized ???? You have got to be kidding ! Organized is a word that is totally foreign to all of Latin America. And regarding this dump : she must be naive to appear so enthusiastic about it. The place is a nightmare .
