I haven't found that much to write about because I've kind of stopped travelling, and somewhat settled down here in La Paz for a little while. For many reasons, including my friend has gotten a bit sick, and I don't want him to go anywhere until he recovers. So for now Santa Cruz, Brazil, Cuzco, etc. are all on hold.
Which really gives me time to enjoy a place. I love La Paz. I've been adopted into a family here, which is pretty wonderful. In fact, I spend about 99% of my day with at least one member. It's actually strange, I live here now. I'm not visiting anymore, I'm looking for a different apartment, and some work until our *project* gets started.
What I find very funny is we're already comfortable here that we kind of forgot about the super tourist attractions like the bike ride in the mountains, or the visit to Tiawanaku (which I am dying to go to) or the salt flats, and are more focused on local worries like work and rent.
Returning isn't an immediate option for me, and even then it's a stressful idea. I need to go back to Chicago AND New York, simultaneously. They're not exactly neighbors, either. It sucks missing out on things back home, which sadly, includes a funeral for someone very close to me, but these are trials and tribulations of life, not just life away from home.
I guess I'll just close this post by saying; no te preocupes.
