To Eleven

First Week on the Road

Buenos Dias, Valparaiso!! 🇨🇱 Buenos Dias, Valparaiso!! 🇨🇱
✨ La Paz, Bolivia has a special kind of magic. ✨ La Paz, Bolivia has a special kind of magic.  Timeless and ageless.  Old and new. High rise buildings and cobblestone streets. 

✨ Passionate political and social unrest mixed with music and art, endless festivals and celebrations, traditional native culture woven deep into everyday life, and some of the nicest people I’ve ever met (even in a year of traveling through Latin America where everyone is warm and welcoming and amazing).

✨ La Paz captured me and kept me here for a month longer than I’d planned cause I just didn’t want to leave. 

✨ I haven’t posted much cause the days have been packed- but time flies and my three months here are at their end.
 
✨ The experience of landing in a place that’s wildly unfamiliar, and then having it become home, has been the most profound part of nomad-ing (for a year next month 😮) — and that’s nowhere more true than here.

✨ And then there’s the experience of leaving a place that feels so connected, SO much a part of me, now.

✨ So with deep reverence for the people, the culture, the land that’s captivating and mysterious and beautiful, the energy that poured through me here, all the experiences that can’t be grasped, and the connections to stay…. sharing a glimpse of my love for this ageless, timeless place.

La Paz, Bolivia, June/ July/ August 2024

Reunion with my nomad friend @diana_mirs who I met Reunion with my nomad friend @diana_mirs who I met in Buenos Aires…  tonight we saw an amazing traditional Bolivian performance of masks/ dance/ music/ improv/ powerful drama/ confetti/ who knows what all was happening, because much of the Spanish was too fast for me to follow.  But, such a cool night!  So fun to cross paths with Diana again and to imagine/ guess where we’ll meet up next.  #nomadlife
one month in, and I’m in love with La Paz. 🥰 one month in, and I’m in love with La Paz. 🥰
.
with the people I’ve met, with the land, with the way native culture is so embedded into daily life (as I understand, this is largely the work of former President Evo Morales, whose work included protection of indigenous practices and making 36 native languages official 😮)
.
we’ve just passed the coldest day of the year - super chilly since I got here- but now it’s rapidly warming up, and there seems to be little in between, climate-wise at 12,000 feet.
.
I’ve experienced some pretty intense physical effects from the altitude- and also there’s an extreme, pristine clarity to the air, a different dimension of focus, and all the energy pouring through 🏔️
.
also, yes, there WAS an attempted coup last week, centered less than 2 miles from me, and I’m fine
.
the political tumult is layered as the people continue to strive for economic balance and a better life, and an energy of fire and spirit pours through
.
and the beauty is everywhere, the mountains surrounding in a protective embrace, the views of the city lights from the “Monticulo” divine, the coca leaves and tea truly a sacred gift, and the spirit in the land and the people heartwarming and genuine and gentle and fiercely loving.
.
so much more to share, but here’s my experiences of June capture in #1secondeveryday 
.
