salar de uyuni
since rodrigo and i were both heading off to uyuni, we decided to go together, and met up with his friend andy there. the uyuni salt flats are amazing! we were in a 4 x 4 for 4 days with a french couple and a japanese girl, so our conversations were ridiculous. i spoke to rodrigo and andy in spanish, and to izumi in japanese, and then we all kinda spoke english…but it was great to be able to practice japanese before my trip! since it had been raining a bit the first night, the salar looked like we were driving on top of water…we also saw things like flamingos, llamas (they are everywhere) huge cactus’s like 30 foot tall, awesome rock formations, pretty lakes, and geysers.
we decided to go cheap and bargain with all the tour companies, and so of-course the one we went with ended up to be pretty non-catering. our driver was also the cook and tour guide, and our car was shit so he was a mechanic most of the time…haha.
