Traveling is all about meeting people.

Once in a while you get the right combination of music, people, conversation, and location. When the combination is clicks in, the music you hear that evening will pick up the mood and feeling you felt and play it back to you when you hear the music again in the future. Tonight was one of those nights. In the town of Puno, is a bar called Mysti-k. It is a very cozy little place with excellent music, and talkative guests – both local and tourist. I talked with a French lady (who has been traveling in South America for a year now) and the bar tender who is a Student at the local university. The three of us discussed music, movies, and traveling for 3 hours while I played as DJ (I plugged my iPod into the music system).

The previous while at the same place, I met a Dutch girl who lives in Amsterdam and her temporary traveling companion from Switzerland. The three of us went to dinner and talked for hours.
