how does one get to see Lake Poopo, the Uyuni Salt Flat; ending with Lake Titicaca because I want to cross over to Peru at Puno without being on an organized tour? Is it possible to meet locals and take buses or whatever and kind of find your way around? I did this in Asia and Russia. That way you get to stay longer and you don't get targeted as a dollar sign tourist. Of course most people get turned on by money. Hopefully most natives in Bolivia are not that way.

    alwloch Got stopped by the Myanmar military at their border, trying to cross into India - Nagaland [snake] country. A dozen officials interrogated me for an hour and told me to return to their capital - Yangon, and to fly out. I refused to leave the border but then one official lied, saying they'd pay for my flight to Kolkata. Instead I flew to Bangkok, took buses through Kuala Lumpur to Singapore and flew to Chennai, India.
    This April plan to fly to Ukraine; tour Prague and the Baltic.
