Yo soy lituano

Bolivija gali pasigirti dviem sostinemis. La Paz - administracijos su prezidentu, parlamentu bei kraugeriais valdininkais, Sucre - juridines puses su auksciausiuoju teismu, teisejais bei kraujasiurbiais advokatais. Pastaroji sostine labai tvarkinga, kulturinga ir rami. Kiekvienoje gatveje veikia sviesaforas ir pareigunas, centre siuksliu minimaliai. Aplink simpatiska centrine aikste zuja apynaujes masinos, daugybe krosiniu motociklu bei keletas mopedu. Kas desimt metru gali pasisveikinti su grazuoliu vabalu (visos trys masinos stovejo simto metru gatves atkarpoje)

Sucre - studentu miestas, cia zioplius is visos Pietu Amerikos priima vienas is svarbiausiu ir didziausiu zemyno universitetu, todel sostine knibzda jaunimeliu.




Tvarkingas, nenumyztas parkas, kur, kaip ir visur, pacukai, kikendami kaip samokslininkai, lenkia pirma viskio stikline, uzgerdami cigaretes dumu. Blaivuoliai mokosi visokiu sokiu ar suka ratus, degindami suvalgytas bulkutes.


Desimtys akinancio baltumo baznyciu skaidriai melyno dangaus ir vesliu palmiu fone, kolonijine architektura, akmenuotos gatves. Gali vaikscioti issiziojes, deja, gatvemis valkatauja sunu buriai, paliekantys vladimirus putinus ant saligatvio. Sucre centra ramiai galetum permesti i pietu Europa, jei ne ikyriai ismaldos prasantys aplinkiniu kaimu vargsai senukai ir mociutes.



Bolivia has two capitals. La Paz is for administration with parliament and president, Sucre for jurisdiction with high court and fat judges. The second one is very clean, beautiful and cosy. Traffic lights and police working hand in hand, the cars are not too old, central plaza and streets around are spotless.




Sucre is student town, one of the biggest and oldest universities in South America atrracts people from all over the continent. Big park, amazing whitewashed stone churches, sunny, no cloud in the sky weather. You could move the centre of Sucre to south of Europe and nobody will the difference but the poor old people from nearby villages asking for money and food.




Zmones - draugiski ir malonus, kai is kisenes betraukiant fotoaparata iskrito pinigai prisistate pora vietiniu ispaniskai ir angliskai ´reikalaudami´susirinkti turta. Sestadieni vienoje is centriniu gatviu surikiuojami stalai, groja vietiniai aliukai, liejasi vynas ir neskanus vietinis alus. Deja, aukstis groziui nepadeda (manau, slegis suspaudzia i vidini) ir vietiniai mis ar misterio konkurso greitu laiku nelaimes.

Normalaus klubo nera, groja makarenas ir lambadas bei radijinius sudukus. I Sucre atvaziavau mokytis ispanu.

Su salyga, kad esu visiskas bambukas naujoms kalboms sekasi nekaip. Studijuoju keturias valandas per diena, i hosteli ateina mokytojas Isaac.

Inteligentiskas bicas, kuris zino Bolivijos istorija, Argentinos futbola ir nemegsta JAV. Salia namu veikia jaukus restoranelis su funky ziemos sodu.

Linksmas seimininkas, kiekviena karta as uzsisakau nezinau ka, bet maistas gardus ir sviezias. Laiko niekam daugiau ir nelieka, o hostelyje alu vakarais gurksnoja keliautojai is visu pasaulio kampu, tad kartais formu ir zodziu kartojimus iskeiciu i pokalbius apie nieka.

People are warm and friendly. On weekends on one of the central streets people drink not so tasty local beer and wine, eat and listen to live music.

No club playing decent music (what a shame) in Sucre, macarenas, lambadas and commercial shit only. The reason I´m here is spanish lessons. I´m useless when it comes to learning language but I´m trying to try my best.

I pay for private lessons, four hours per day, the teacher - Issac is nice intelligent guy who knows a lot about Bolivia, argentinian football and is not a big fan of USA. There is cosy restaurant close to the hostel where I go for dinner and lunch. The owner is super friedly and they have funky back garden (food is good too, I´ll need two seats in a bus for my next journey). There no much time left for anything else.

Bolivija - pamisusi del futbolo ir man teko garbe pabuvoti salies lygos rungtynese. Pirmi zaide paaugliai, stadijonas po truputi pilnejo, susirinko koks 10 tukstanciu zmoniu.

Pirmyn atgal zygiavo saldumynu, ledu, kavos, bandeliu, cipsu, limonado pardavejai. Ziurovai, kad girdeti komentara atsitempe ivairaus dydzio ir amziaus radijas, klojosi paklodes ant akmeniniu suoliuku. I aikste isbegus pagindinems Sucre ir priesininku is Oruro komandoms fanai pradejo saudyti fejerverkus, kuriuos, pasirodo, galima atsinesti be problemu.

Po pirmo sveciu ivarcio Oruro gerbejai trinktelejo keleta fejerverku. Viena raketa, zviegdama is itampos, nuleke iki stadijono vidurio ir dar kibirksciuodama krito ant tos pacios komandos zaidejo galvos. Europoje zaidimas butu nutrauktas tuoj pat, stadijonas uzrakintas iki kaledu, o sauliai nuplakti. Cia pasautas zaidejas staigiu rankos mostu nusikrate pavojaus, teisejas nekreipe demesio, o stadijonas vienu balsu kvatojo. Linksmas zaidimas, groja abieju komandu orkestrai, plysauja radijai. Sucre pralose 1-3, aplink skraide riebus keiksmai, vargsas treneris buvo nusvilptas, aprektas ir pasiustas milijona kartu.

Bolivia is crazy about football and I went to see the national league match. More than 10 thousand people came for the game. Match was not bad, both teams had orchestras (I liked Oruro one) so watching game was fun. One thing really suprised me was the fireworks are allowed into stadium. When Oruro scored the first goal one of the fireworks flew into the field and hit one of the Oruro players on the head.

And the game wasn´t stopped, the referee didn´t pay attention and the stadium laughed their asses off. Sucre lost 1-3 and I was sorry for a manager. The fans told him really loud and many times that they want him out.

Ka gi pritauskiau auksini 50 rasineli. Ta proga sveikina Bolivijos folkloro asai.

O tu?
