Well, after traipsing around bolivia for a few months and putting up with most of the drudgery they call hostels there (hey, its cheap I guess), I find myself landed in the backpackers paradise - jodanga backpackers hostel, Santa Cruz.... its on the way to or from Brazil and they have a swimming pool, excellent hot showers, 100 DVDs, Cable, A bar serving REAL coffee and the best fruit frappes ever, A BILLIARD TABLE, and.... table soccer!! I was only planning to be there a few days on my way to Brazil but I loved it so much - and goddam its cheap compared to the rest of South America - I stayed for 10 days.

Gotta visit and find out its tru for yourself.

How are you? Welcome to the forum!

"Backpackers Paradise." Hmmm. Well, there's been a few places where I've spent an extra night or two.

Can one place be a 'backer's paradise?' Is that faulty adverstising. I'm thinking that a backpacker is at his/her best when there moving! A backpacker's paradise is not one location.

I just got a package in the mail. Right now I'm feeling real strong for the poeopl I've met while traveling.

Anyway. I"m done for the night.
