| Chavez is dead. long live Chavez! |
A month later I was about to
enter my favourite country in South America again, the country that
impressed me so much, country of absurdity and paradoxes but also of beauty and
uniqueness. There is no other one like Venezuela. It´s not touristy at all
probably because tourist and backpackers are scared to go since it´s being
recognized as one the most dangerous places to visit but also due to the lack
of information. Most of the backpackers I´ve been meeting along the way in
South America didn’t plan to go there, simply because they had no idea what the
country offers. Neither did I.
One thing was definitely
different this time, just a month later after my first visit and I knew it would
mark my trip drastically – Chavez´s death. When I was there in January, no one
knew if he was dead or alive and there
was lots of speculation about it but this time it was official. He died right
when we were at the border, coming from Maicao,Colombia, 5
th of
March 2013. After two year battle against the
cancer, the commander of Bolivarian Revolution met an early death. Here is a link to my post about the first time I came in Vz:
Venezuela with Chavez alive.
