After another 2 crazy nights at the Wild Rover, a bit of r and r was much needed, and what better way than by Lake Titicaca, the ‘highest navigable lake’ in the world. Bolivia is a country that surpasses many world records, definitely worth a visit for that reason alone.
After one of the worst bus rides (Bolivia is not best known for its buses), which consisted of getting off the bus and onto a boat whilst our bus was transported to the other side by a bigger boat, we arrived at the beautiful lake.
Copacabana is a real backpacker town, as it is the border town into Peru. There are many bars, restaurants and hostels. Maybe a little too touristy for my like! However we managed to find a really nice hostel called ‘Eco Hostal Joshua’ which served vegetarian food and was eco friendly another win!
Unfortunately I was sick for a day here so I spent my first day tucked in bed feeling sorry for myself. On the second day however I made it to isla de sol, which is about an hours boat ride from Copacabana. There is not that much to do on the island but there are fantastic views of the lake.
Copacabana is a great place to cross the border from Peru to Bolivia (or visa versa), the lake is also beautiful. Two nights is definitely enough here, as it isn’t the most picturesque town.
