By South American standards, Bolivia is not large, but it's bigger than most European countries, and about three times the size of Germany. It's a country of contrasting landscapes and people. Its western part is dominated by the vast highlands, at about 4,000 m of altitude, including Lake Titicaca, the highest navigable lake in the world. The western and eastern cordilleras of the Andes Mountains are their borders. They are an extensive pasture for sheep and cows, and the occasional llama, or alpaca. The air at this altitude is starved of oxygen, making it hard to breathe. The eastern cordillera is equally expansive as the highlands. There are endless mountain peaks. And to the east of them are the vast lowlands, which make up more than two thirds of Bolivia's landmass. We spent all of our time in and around the Lake Titicaca area, with the exception of a brief excursion to the Uyuni Salt Flats, a large lake that dried up eons ago, leaving a sea of salt behind.

In Brazil in, the late 70's raised iconic things like the looks and the music, and the samba was pretty enjoyable, especially in the Copacabana bar, where Lola Nunes worked as a dancer and waitress, she later made Toni and fell deeply in love, later the got together, and everything was fine, but one night, one of them would be assassinated in a fight, and the other one would be depressed and alone forever, or that is what everyone thought.

“The Landscape of the Imagination. Just say it exists. Really, actually exists. A world that has grown and developed from the whole of human imagination over thousands of years.

What would you say to that?” When renowned author CJ Sturridge finally finds the door in the wall for which he has been searching all his life, the one that will lead him into another world composed entirely from the workings of the human imagination, he has no idea of the trouble he’s about to get himself into.

Neither Lydia Charbonneau nor Jack Blackwood thinks it's a good idea to get involved, but one handshake and one very short conversation have them making plans for a weekend romp. She's a concert pianist and music professor from the University of Kansas, in New York to audition for a position at Juilliard. He's an uncouth bond trader and accidental CEO who likes meaningless sex (lots of it), Big Macs, and Dumb and Dumber. They have nothing in common-until one of Jack's ex-lovers nearly kills them both.
