Back to Bolivia
Seems like only yesterday when I wrote my last "Back to Bolivia" entry. However, it was nearly 14 months ago. I'll be around and about, mostly in Cochabamba, for the next four weeks. I've come along way since the first election I witnessed, back in 1997. Back then, I confused Evo Morales with Ivo Kuljis.
I've managed to swear off Bolivian food for the last six weeks, knowing full well that I would have the best food at even better prices for an entire month. Good things come to those who wait.
My only regret is that my football team, Jorge Wilstermann shamelessly did not qualify as one of the top 6 clubs in the country for the end of the year playoffs. That only means that I won't be able to participate in one my favorite pasttimes - spending Sunday afternoons in the Felix Capriles Stadium in Cochabamba watching our club disappoint us time and time again. So maybe that is fitting.
I'll be writing about the elections on my bolivia blog and on Global Voices.

What do you think about the recent comments about Morales from Kirchner and Lula?
