Asuncion to Jujuy

There's little reading required in this post, just a short video about my trip from Asuncion to Jujuy last week.

27 hours. 3 buses. 1600km. Over 10 terminals. One international border. Five provincial borders.

The music in the video is from the Motorcycle Diaries soundtrack. I thought it was appropriate, since everyone is calling me Che and his trip was pretty inspirational! Its 1953, he's 23 and training as a doctor in BA, him and his mate Alberto travel 8000 miles, much of it on a rather cruddy bike, they cross the Andes, the Amazon and the Atacama desert... very cool.

Fortunately, unlike him, the result of my fact finding trip is not armed revolution! After the fact, we can all see how useful that was...

Note the queue of trucks on the right of the road in the vid. There was a good hundred or so, all waiting in 35+ degree heat to get through to Argentina!
