The Beautiful Outdoors

I'm becoming friends with another Canadian, Heather, who has lived in Tarija for about 11 years. Last Saturday we spent about 6 hours hiking about 20 minutes outside of the city enjoying the beauty and quietness of nature. It was like a whole other world and I almost felt like I was back in New Brunswick. I cannot say how refreshing it was. And that's not mentioning the point where I actually fell into the river while trying to cross some rocks :)

The fotos show you not only the beauty but also some of what life is like in the country. The farm dog that followed us for much of the day (I called him Hank), the farmers sowing their crops and plowing the land, and a few of the animals.
































'til next time,
