La Paz

18 Apr

La Paz, probably the most known city in Bolivia. It is definitely the most random city I have ever been to. We had a bit of an scary experience when we arrived, which involved a “fake” policeman getting in to our taxi and demanding to see our belongings and id. However, we managed to get away from him safe and sound with all our precious belongings. We had read about things like this happening before we arrived in La Paz, so we were prepared in some ways of what to do. Apparently it is some kind of scheme they do over here (by taxi drivers and fake policemen) to try to scam you and get away with all our belongings.

However, enough about that, we went to a football match over here. Attending a local derby of the La Paz teams; Bolivar against The Strongest (I am not joking when I say that’s their name). There were about 40 000 people watching it, the atmosphere was great!
