How’s the serenity?

We spent our last weekend of volunteering Boutique eco Resort & Spa Allkamari about 40 minutes outside of La Paz. They messed up our booking and offered us an upgrade!

Located just 40 minutes from La Paz, at 3,800Mts (13,000ft) above sea -level, Allkamari is located on the Canyon and Lagoon of the Souls, a sacred place to the Aymara inhabitants of the Andean highlands, who come here to offer burnt-offering ceremonies to the imposing Mountain Gods that overlook our Valley, Mount Illimani and Mururata.
