This week I arrive in La Paz, capital of Bolivia - The latest stop on my Latin America tour. I started the day with a ride over the city on the largest cable car network in the world (!!!) up to El Alto, for a walk around 16 de Julio Market and views of the city.
Next stop was the Witches Market, a super old traditional market selling all kinds of remedies, medicines and stuffed llamas and alpacas. I find somewhere around there to get in for a Milanese sandwich and ended up working on today's artwork whilst there - Something inspired by my surroundings.
Later that evening I head out for a look around the Belen neighbourhood, see a guy accidentally get set on fire, unsuccessfully seek tacos and settle for a pizza to go.
