FIRST TIME in South America - LA PAZ, BOLIVIA

[@AmigosThree]

Born and raised in Oxford, Uk. Lived in La Paz for 17 years. Few tips to anyone reading this: 1 - La Paz is considered quite a safe city in general. Most of the crime happens in touristy areas (San Francisco, witches market, etc) in the city center. Usually just petty theft, but that's the epicenter of it. 2 - Talking whilst walking will zap all of the air from your lungs. If you want to talk to a camera or on the phone, it's best to stop walking first. 3 - There are many remedies for alitutue sickness, and keep in mind that getting altitude sickness or not getting it is a game of luck. It usually has nothing to do with how fit you are. 4 - Many tourist don't know this, but the city of La Paz extends south to a slightly lower altitude. This area, known as "zona sur", is a little newer and arguably better kept. From Zona Sur, you can go even further south to some of the outlying towns such as Mallasa, where you will see Valle De La Luna (Lunar Valley) and find some excellent food. 5 - If you're worried about the effects of the altitude, avoid heavy foods and alcohol. Soup, chicken, water, fruit juice should be your diet for the first few days. 6 - Coca is NOT cocaine. It is ONE of the raw ingredients for the drug. It suppresses hunger and is a mild stimulant (like caffeine). I've never liked it myself, but trying it doesn't mean that you're trying "drugs". And despite what the Hollywood movies will tell you, the "street value" of raw coca is practically nothing! Nice video. Hope you enjoyed your trip!

[@tt_looking_glass]

BTW, the fruit in your bowl were figs and guava. I love both!!

Welcome to Bolivia! To deal with altitude sickness you must buy some pills at the pharmacy specific for that. Within the city of La Paz there are other attractions, such as: Valle de Las Animas, Valle de La Luna, Mirador Killi Killi. In the southern part of the city the altitude drops a little, and there are several cafes, you can go towards San Miguel. Within Bolivia there are many other places that you can visit. If you are going to visit more cities in Bolivia. In La Paz you can go to Lake Titikaka, the Death Road, and many other attractions. Inside Bolivia: El Sajama, Toro Toro, etc. My city is very beautiful, Cochabamba (Tunari), also Sucre, in Santa Cruz (Samaipata)

[@romf1810]

To anyone watching this, against altitude sickness you can find a pill called Sorojchi-pill (sorojchi is how we called altitude sickness) and also drink coca tea 🫖, it will make the difference

[@viciousv9671]

Coca tea?

[@wannaspeakbyveroniq]

Love your style of filming guys!! Waiting for this South American series ✌️🔥

[@Joelfriend]

Aww thank you so much, we have planned a crazy set of videos for this trip to South America, so excited to share! Thanks for watching! ☺️

[@scott-hamilton]

Wow, the city looks like a great place. Im looking forward to seeing this South American adventure 🙌🏼

[@josef6126]

local here, welcome! idk if you are still around but if you are ylu should try typica, is a cafe in some places in la paz (I personally like the satellite one), and just to clarify, that hostal where you're staying seems cozy, but the area is not the best in terms of safety, its worse than a lot of other places, in any cade, good luck

[@GB-uq7ri]

Man your videos are getting so good! High Emilia had me in stitches 😂 I did South America ages ago and when I look back I wish I allowed myself to enjoy it more. I feel like I let the fear of petty crime and danger take it all away from me by constantly looking over my shoulder. Seeing you guys being savvy enough to be wary but also enjoying it is amazing.

[@Joelfriend]

ahaha, I know exactly what you mean, we are starting to relax a little more now than when we first arrived. It's important to relax but I guess still stay vigilant! Thanks for watching!

[@Gutshotgary]

Looking forward to the next three months which I hope will bring back some great memories from a similar duration trip I did with my wife and son a few years ago. I’m guessing that you’re on your way to Uyuni just now - some of our best photos ever were taken there. Our other highlights included Machu Picchu and the Galápagos Islands which I’m sure are in your travel plans too - but if not, add them both NOW! Also, be sure to find the Aymara and Quechua ladies in La Paz - instantly recognisable in their bowler hats. Have a great time, guys.

[@Joelfriend]

Yes!!! We have just done Uyuni and wow what an incredible experience it was! We do have some other crazy plans and video ideas but unfortunately not Galapagos as it’s a bit too expensive for us and we have decided to not do Peru on this trip either!

[@Chris-yk9gs]

Not doing Peru is a shame! Absolutely stunning, real life tomb raider environment @@Joelfriend

[@Gutshotgary]

@@Joelfriend OK. So you’ve now got two fantastic reasons for another trip sometime soon then! For future reference, there are fantastic value last minute deals to be had on Galápagos cruises if you can be a bit flexible. We arranged ours in Quito once we got there and left for Galápagos two days later. Essentially, they sell-off any remaining cabins heavily discounted in the last few days leading up to the cruise departure date.

[@Gutshotgary]

@@Joelfriend If you’re going to Buenos Aires, be sure to take the ferry over to Uruguay. It goes to a lovely small town called Colonia De Sacramento from where you can take a bus up to Montevideo. Colonia is where some of the good people of BA go for peace at the weekend and is home to the best pizza we’ve ever eaten at a restaurant called NAPO (18 de Julio 267, 70000 Col. del Sacramento). It’s only a small town, very easily walkable. The other top tip for a day out from BA is to take the local trains to Tigre. Lastly, you have to go to Iguazu - the falls are absolutely incredible. If it’s not on your itinerary for the current trip, get it on the next one

[@feriosiqueira]

So excited for the adventures to come 😊

[@JoeMildenhall]

I received good advice when I traveled to La Paz and started on the altitude sickness pills a week before my flight there. It seemed to help with headaches, etc. but you still get out of breath. You should really enjoy the Coca tea while you're in South America. It's a lovely tea and does help with headaches. Using the fresh or dried leaves is best but the tea bags work as well. Just be careful how many cups you drink at night or it may keep you awake. Do a little research on it. Looking forward to your other travels. I've enjoyed Bolivia, the Galapagos Islands, Chili and Peru. You have to get out of La Paz to really understand Bolivia. Peru was my favorite so far.

[@keangwooichoo6138]

Thank you for visiting La Paz, Bolivia.

[@sallyangus9444]

So nice La Paz just a little exagerated about the altitude❤

[@nicolasespinoza712]

Welcome in South America! If your travel plans include Chile, I'd recommend you visiting: In the northern regions: 📍The Atacama Desert (San Pedro de Atacama & surroundings)🌵 📍Chañaral de Aceituno cove (hotspot for whale-watching)🐳 📍La Serena & the Elqui Valley. In the central regions: 📍Viña del Mar 📍Santiago 📍The wine routes (Aconcagua, Colchagua, Casablanca)🍷 In the southern regions: 📍The Lakes & Volcanoes district (Villarrica, Calafquen, Panguipulli, Ranco, Llanquihue)🌋 📍Carretera Austral (Route 7) 📍Torres del Paine National Park & the Strait of Magellan area🏔 Whatever your adventure is, I hope you have a great time in this incredible corner of the world :) Saludos desde Chile!😄🇨🇱

so glad you enjoyed my city and hopefully you can come back again!

[@mikael_e]

Nice - just enjoy it !!! Was to Quito-Ecuador some years ago and also felt the altitude for some days. Was a great experience, never really felt unsafe (of course also taking precautions, though). Keep it up , enjoy the world and the people. cheers frpm Austria, M.

[@Joelfriend]

Ahh that’s awesome, we head to Ecuador at some point on this trip so will be interesting to see how the altitude effects us there!

[@nigelw.9043]

@@Joelfriend Following current media coverage I would be cautious about Ecuador as a tourist at the moment. They are having horrendous issues with drug related crime and violence. The Germany foreign office has multiple warnings on their website. Major parts of Ecuador are under curfew.

[@enfokus]

You two are mazing! It’s hard to sit in a plane for more than 5 hours so I can’t imagine 36 hours of consecutive traveling

There was a 10 hour layover in the middle so a bit of time to stretch the legs but yeah definitely a long journey!

[@edvinblomberg3043]

Nice with a new video! I hope Emilia feels better now from the altitude sickness. I discovered you a few weeks ago and have been hooked on watching your videos. I am interested in going to the Philippines and was wondering which places you would recommend if you plan to stay at two different locations over two weeks and enjoy white beaches and waterfalls. Looking forward to your next video!

[@oscarantonioalbertonavia6993]

Welcome to La Paz. It is a little hard to get accustomed to the altitude. The coca tea is actually like any other tea and helps a lot to get adapted. I hope you get enough time to visit Jaen Street, the Moon Valley, the death road, Tiwanaco, Copacabana and many other beautiful places in La Paz. My best wishes to you! I hope to see you in the streets of my city.

[@AhmadAli-xz7rn]

Great work guys

[@Joelfriend]

Thank you so much 😀 have a great day!

Well done guys. Amazing video and you're doing great. Every time I get up to 3,800 metres, I get grumpy and start heading downwards, so you've beaten me. Stay safe and have fun :)

[@Joelfriend]

Ahaha thanks Toby! It did take some time to adjust but incredibly used to the altitude now! Amazing how your body adapts over time :)

[@nickname1340]

Nice Bolivia .

[@lynn304]

Actually, coke leaves have nothing to do with cocaine. Yes, cocaine is produced with partly coke leaves, but an example: you can eat two kilograms of grapes and won‘t get drunk, even tho wine is made out of grapes, because the process is not done from grapes to wine, so there‘s no alkohol. Same with coke leaves, and it has actually a lot of benefits for blood pressure and digestion, plus it makes you feel more awake like koffee or mate.

[@dounin7822]

I don't use the coca leaves either, but yeah, they must think the leaves it's the same than cocaine, it's not. By the way, coke is a slang for cocaine, coke means coca when you're talking about the drink. Talking about the drink, if they drink Coca-Cola, they're just consuming coca leaves, which it's still part of its ingredients.

[@jamesc9001]

looks like pumpkin seeds, fig, guava in acai with granola

[@joakimholmer9744]

Exciting stuff to follow. Stay safe 🎉

[@LifeOfKyleMc]

Love your videos, you inspired me to travel SE Asia! Loving it so far

[@celdur4635]

Fun fact, its not that there is a lack of oxygen, there is technically more than enough. The problem is the aire pressure is lower and our lungs are adapted to best absorb oxygen at sea level, so the problem is the pressure difference between our own body and the atmosphere at those altitudes.

[@Joelfriend]

Oh wow that’s cool! You learn something new everyday! ☺️ thanks for sharing!

[@piotrchwalek6925]

Couldn't wait for this video. It's great to see that you adapt as it's so high. Are you going to Machu Picchu?:)

[@Flyerstone]

We used Google Translate when we talking to the locals in South America. You might want to add Peru to your bucketlist, you can see Machu Picchu, it's one of the Wonders of the World. And also Rainbow Mountains. We also heard some places in South America that were not safe but actually we never felt that we weren't safe when we were there.

[@marmoor5515]

New follower guys great video, Bolivia is such a great country to visit: Cheaper than the neighbors (including Argentina lately) and such a raw adventure hub. Y'all need to try toro-toro the views are amazing, and amazonia trip which is safer and cheaper than Brazil. Potosi and Sucre are beautiful colonial cities with lots of history and lastly try Tarija a valley to the south. Tarija is incredibly cheaper (even to Bolivia standards) great food, much cleaner than the rest of the country, they are the wine city of Bolivia, their vibe is completely different to the rest of Bolivia, the only issue would be that not many people speaks English.

[@Joelfriend]

Ahhh unfortunately, we didn't get to visit much of Bolivia, and wish we planned more time there after realising how much there is to see there. We are already kind of planning a trip back! ahah thank for the information and watching! All the best :)

[@ctsee]

Honestly I wouldn’t have known it was filmed from the phone unless you told us. Travelling light also really helps too. I see you must’ve done lots of airdropping to edit this video.

The best way to fight altitude in La Paz it is not Staying in the old part of La Paz but the douth so the altirude is less in zona sur and the weather is warmer. Hoyels sre not expensive and are better thsn hostals.

[@spider29887]

nice content, I live in La Paz, as an uber driver I can tell you the city is one of the most peaceful in south america but El Alto is very different take care there.

[@1Chiaraa11]

I've been to manyyy cities in south America, and La Paz is by far one of the worst, most stressful, chaotic and depressing You risk your life just crossing the street or going from south to the center because the people don't know how to drive It's dirty and people are rude, can't even make space on the sidewalk, just looking at their phones like zombies All about survival, not living El Alto is 10 times worse though Best city in Bolivia is Tarija

[@kevinope6166]

Buen video, es curioso que yo soy de ahí y sin embargo siempre me siento afectado al subir gradas y hacer ejercicio x'D

[@jasonlavere5071]

I'm good up to about 9,000 but if I stay above that for an extended period of time, I have a hard time. I find myself waking up in the middle of the night gasping for air. It took about 2 weeks to acclimate to the altitudes in Colorado. I can only imagine how much worse I would feel in La Paz.

[@abelsietecuatro9249]

Cable car view was so fast. 0,5 microseconds 😆. We didn't see anything

[@justjordiano]

Hope you enjoy or enjoyed your travels down there in case you’re already somewhere else haha :)

[@Joelfriend]

Ahaha we are now in a different country! We keep more updated on instagram

[@piadas804]

Actually, the climate in La Paz is very predictable. Because it is on a tropical zone with high altitude, every day has basically the same temperature, and is sunny. In the high part of the city, the average is 14°/4° in the summer, and 14°/-2° in the winter, sunny through all the year, with rarely any temperature variation.

[@debeeduckie]

Heyyy love your videos! I was wondering how you guys pack your bags for checked luggage? Travelling to the Philippines soon and wanted to travel with a bagpack as a checked baggage but unsure 😅

Heart racing, shortness of breath and air hunger, dizziness, fatigue, headaches and head pressure. I feel like I'm going to pass out as soon as I go up the stairs or walk a bit faster. The only way to make it better is to lie down. I developed this condition after getting Covid. I wonder what would happen to me if I went to La Paz? I would probably pass out.

[@Manifesting_Secret_Sketchbook]

Altitude sickness can be pretty bad if you are not careful. I've seen tourists collapse out of nowhwhere, pulmonar enemas... You do need to take some precuations. Sometimes, tourists are recommended to climb slowly towards La Paz. Sometimes Sorojchi pill is enough. As for safety, Bolivia in general is pretty safe unless. You are not likely to be a victim of violent crime. But be careful of petty chrime.

[@rafaelclaros-w2z]

when i went to la paz i remember having nauseas but you just have to bring coca with you

[@dounin7822]

I'm from Bolivia and I don't think that stat about 99% of Bolivian houses having a llama fetus buried under the house is accurate, because Bolivia has different cultures, not everything surrounds about you both saw in La Paz, which places like Witches Market is mostly based on Aymara beliefs and traditions, in the influence of Quechua ones (Inca Empire). People I know and family don't follow much of those traditions, some very well known traditions yes, but still most of them don't follow them. Personally, I don't follow them, but I respect it when others do. It also depends on social classes, in La Paz you'd have the wealthy people, which usually lives in the south of La Paz, Zona Sur (South Zone), they could also follow some traditions, curiously, they're among those who may follow traditions related to ask nature for more income, some of them could go to the Witches market for that. The middle class, which most of them follow the most popular traditions in the west of Bolivia to some degree, lower middle class, that's similar to middle class in lifestyle. Then you have the popular class, shorter explanation possible, it's the mix of wealthy people that got it from commerce, good income, but may now have their own house or they live in the popular class zones and low income class. This class is defined by their playstyle and some follow the traditions, others may not, but this class would be among the ones following closely the Andean traditions. Unless you go beyond the tourist spots, tourists mainly interact with the popular class. El Alto city is their own thing, also a mix of the popular class and those that migrated from neighbor countries or from other places of Bolivia with decent or low income and the rural side of the west of Bolivia for the most part. They have developed their own lifestyle, not reflected in the rest of La Paz, like those expensive cholets, wordplay of cholo/chola and chalet, that are Andean thematic apartments. I sometimes go near the tourist spots, because nearby is the electronic stores, so only when I need to buy something like that I go up there. Security? La Paz is safe, except for certain spots that it doesn't mean if you go there, something will just happen, it's more about luck and being in the wrong moment. It's not ideal to walk in the Downtown, near San Francisco, that Downtown walkway and around Mercado Lanza during night, local or foreigner criminals may appear there. During day, it's not ideal to carelessly hold objects in the Downtown, casual pickpocketers may do evil. Not ideal to be around popular class night clubs and bars, particularly in El Alto, middle class and wealthy class is way safer. Fights in the street? In many years it must have been few times when I saw something or anything at all. You both may have been in the wrong time. But, also be careful, some criminals may pretend to fight and fall over you, as you said it happened, to try to steal something from you, I recalled a guy I knew many years ago when he went to El Alto, that happened to him, guys argued and pushed each other and the one that fell over him, he took his wallet, he was distracting him apologizing, that guy noticed his wallet was missing and another one of them moving fast and he chased the person which managed to escape, in the end.
