Bolivia - Potosi - November 20 and 21


We met with a mine leader during his break. Like all miners he was chewing coca leaves and sipping a horrible alcool at 96 degrees. This is how they can go through the long days in this dark place. This man told us about his work and the competition in the mines. This man is 39 years old but did not seem to be healthy and looked much older.
