Bolivia, located in the heart of South America, is a breathtakingly beautiful and culturally rich, landlocked country, known for its diverse landscapes and strong indigenous culture. The country offers everything from the towering peaks of the Cordillera Real, which cater to hikers and climbers, to the mirrored expanses of the Salar de Uyuni salt flats, the world's largest, and the wildlife-rich Bolivian Amazon Rainforest. Its administrative capital, La Paz, boasts attractions like the famous Witches' Market and the Moon Valley, while the constitutional capital, Sucre, is famous for its well-preserved colonial architecture. With a layered history encompassing the Inca Empire, Spanish colonialism, and modern indigenous cultures, Bolivia offers travelers a unique blend of scenery, history, culture, and adventure.

Couch surfing in Bolivia offers a unique and enriching way to truly immerse in the local culture. It provides an excellent opportunity for adventurous women to meet locals, learn about their traditions, and gain firsthand insights of the Bolivian way of life. Additionally, you'll meet fellow globetrotters to share experiences and create lasting friendships. Couch surfing allows you to see Bolivia through a local's eyes, discovering the hidden gems that are missed by most tourists. It's an authentic and budget-friendly way to enjoy your stay in Bolivia.

Bolivia is probably the cheapest country in Latin America! The locals are super welcoming and polite, and because tourist infrastructure is still developing, prices are low and it can get a bit messy to get from one place to another. Still, the country is beautiful, from salt flats, to the rainforest jungle, to crazy colonial cities. In terms of safety it felt super okay, just had to be a bit careful after dark, but not worse than any other surrounding country!

I travelled solo across Bolivia for 20 days. I started my journey in Sucre, then went to Uyuni, and later to La Paz. I was worried initially, but now I can say that I felt really safe. I used local buses, taxis and visited a lot of places. My only recommendation for Bolivia is to beware of scams. One guy sold me a bus ticket to another city at double the price.

Definitely visit salar de uyuni the salt flats. It looks like you are in Mars.
I stayed there 3 and half months and also worked to there. It's easy place to live low cost cos you cand work and get free accommodation or even some food.

Bolivia is amazing, I was in La Paz, Uyuni and Potosi, I loved La Paz a lot, you cannot miss doing the Camino de la Muérete, it is an unforgettable adventure, Uyuni I recommend only doing the 2-day tours and Potosí does not have much to visit but I loved the city, it is very beautiful, you can stay a few days to rest from the noise and traffic of big cities, I recommend Hostel Koala in Potosí and you can find it at Hostelworld.
