This picture was taken for me , in the Uyuni salt flat in Bolivia, on a summer break of 2008, when I went to travel around south America with 3 friends. That was an amazing travel and life experience.In this Place , you can´t tell where the sky and ground are and it´s like a big mirror, this is the biggest salt flat of the world. have araound 72 km of length and is a beautiful landscape
I could see and visit a lot of cool places and knew nice people from Argentina, Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador, Brasil.......I even I made good new friends, and later on I went to their countries and houses.
On this travel I visited some archaeological sites , like Nazca lines, a some Inca´s forts, it was incredible. I also visited a plate mine in Potosi called Cerro Rico and observed the hard life of kids miners. Too I visited the Guayasamin house´s, lot of nice beaches, went to the jungle and share with a Shaman and took ayaguasca, I jumped from a bridge and I trie many typical food of eachcountries.
In the picture, appears me and my 3 friends , Miguel, Polo, and Piri (in left to right order). Piri is my classmate and his friend Miguel are both from Ecuador, and Polo was my classmate in high school. The convivence was fine, without big fights or something like that.
I like this picture because , the place , the Uyuni salt flat is like "Imagine" song form J. Lennon in its lyrics say.....
Imagine there's no Heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today ...
