Bolivia

Bolivia is the country I would like to visit. In fact my boyfriend and I are making plans to go there somewhere in the future. What I think is amazing about Bolivia, and what makes it my first choice, is that I want to see firsthand what it is happening in Bolivia, I want to see how works a native government, I want to compare it with our “republican regime” and I want to know how the common people feels about their president and his government.


I know from friends that have gone there that it is a beautiful country, that it has a lot of contrast, for example 80 percent of the population is native and Evo Morales is the first native president that this country has. Another important fact that interests me is that you don’t need to have a lot of money to have a great time in Bolivia, comparing it with the value of thing here in Chile, Bolivia is definitely cheaper than Chile.

But what interest me the most is that although we are neighboring countries, we are so much different, our cultures are very dissimilar and we have conflicts regarding the geographic delimitations. That makes it a place where I want to be.
