Finally in Bolivia and the Family is growing
Greeting to all my relations,
We are continuing strong here in the south. We have finally crossed into Bolivia, and in no time will be in Peru. Everything is beautiful here. It has been a little cold, but we have been able to deal with it. The only struggle so far has been running in the altitude, there has been days where we have reached 5000 feet above sea level, and we have to take it a little slower, but the mountains are always filled with llamas, and thew landscapes stay with me even in my dreams.
A few days ago we finally met up with a route that started in Urugauy and we are one big family on route to meet up with our brothers and sisters in Panama. There are currently 13 runners right now. 3 brothers from Urugauy, a sister from Mexico City, a sister from Paraguay, 3 runners from Argentina, plus the 5 of us that were running in the main route. The energy is really good right now, and i am glad there are more people to learn from and grow with on this journey. Arleady we have been getting to know one and other and sharing in this beautiful prayer.
In Potosi we were suprised and taken to that natural hot springs in the mountains called ¨El Ojo Del Inca¨. I feel very at home here, there are many things that remind me of Mexico but especially the food and the salsa, which they dont eat in Argentina. The communities have been mostly Imara and Quechua. All the grandmas are really strong and still hold on to their langauge and wear their traditional clothing.
I hope all my family is well on the northern route. We are praying for all of you everyday, stay strong and safe.....
Oscar
