Our Bolivian itinerary on our around the world trip had us moving from the bustling, loud, polluted city of La Paz to the peaceful town of Copacabana, Bolivia. We found serenity on Lake Titicaca as well as plenty of things to do; our time there was a perfect mix of hiking, immersing ourselves in local culture, and napping in hammocks.
If you find yourself in this part of the world on your next adventure, be sure to try these five great things to do on Lake Titicaca!
Let me tell you about my favorite village in Switzerland.
No, my favorite village in Europe.
Wait, no. My favorite village in the world.
I take this phrase in the highest regard, because Lauterbrunnen, Switzerland, is the kind of place you have to see to believe. I’ve been twice, and will go every single time I am in Switzerland.
In this one, I’m going to convince you to do the same.
When we announced we would be going on a three-week camping safari in southern Africa, we had a pretty amazing response from readers who were looking to do something similar in the future.
One reader asked us to put together a post about what a participation camping tour is like in terms of the jobs and duties required, as this one feature about camping safaris is a big turn off for some travelers.
From our experience on our tour, the participation component of the experience was minimal. Although some jobs on the rotating schedule were more tedious than others, hardly any of them detracted from the experience as a whole and sound more time consuming initially than they really are.
So what all can you expect to do?

“Don’t drink water, drink only beer!” declared Bishop Arnold, now the Patron Saint of Beer.
He was speaking to people in his Belgian village during an outbreak of the plague in medieval times. Saint Arnold believed the water to be contaminated. He just might have been right because after his statement, the disease was stopped in its tracks.
Belgian’s love of beer started off right, and continues to this very day.
