| Potosi, Potosi, yo soy de Potosi, CARAJO!!! |
| Hey hey changos. Still in Potosi. Met some Bolivian university students and I've been hanging out with them, excellent people. One's a dude named Chino and he's studying Quechua language and culture (quechua is a native language to South America) also Cecita who's studying languages, as well as Eva, also studying languages, and an argentinean artisan named Pedro. Also spent some time with the guide from my mine tour, Obed, who's an excellent dude. There's a big cultural festival tomorrow where all the university students dress up in cultural clothing and dance in the streets. They've been practicing over the past few days, it's really really neat to watch. I'm really happy to be hangin out with some Bolivians again!!! Really good people. I gotta go, ciao! I'll write about the festival later. |

Hi Ben. Had a bad connection when you left your phone message so couldn't make out much of what you were saying. Sounds like you have met an awesome group of people. Too bad you sent home all your Bolivian traditional clothes home or you could dance in the streets too!
