Bolivia makes surprisingly great wine. Tarija has some of the highest vineyards anywhere.
Singani is a grape spirit you basically can't find outside the country.
The list of things this place doesn't advertise about itself just keeps going.
Everyone asks what it costs to live in Santa Cruz. Most answers you'll find are from someone who hasn't lived here since 2019.

Real numbers, current prices:

@hispanicnomad To be fair, Andorra is about 100x smaller than Argentina 😆but I see your point. Argentina has a way of wasting tax payers money and causing inflation by terrible overspending combined with even worse management of the "governments funds".
Oruro, nine years ago: a taxi driver shouted "maldito gringo" at me before both feet were on the ground. First hour inside Bolivia, after I took a bus from Chile.
Santa Cruz, today: palm trees, 30 degrees, and I'm not going anywhere. Nicest vibes and lifestyle ever.
Same country. Different planet.
PlanBolivia is https://t.co/9saIRT00Yc now 🇧🇴
Because a residency card is really only just the beginning.
The best part comes after: finding your place, getting your day-to-day sorted, meeting the right people, and figuring out how to make life here really work for you.
That’s what we increasingly found ourselves helping people with anyway.
So: new name, bigger idea, broader focus, still here on the ground in Bolivia.
Your Better Life in Bolivia starts here!
