Bolivia: Potosi, Uyuni, Sucre & La Paz – Mines, Salt Flats & High-Altitude Adventures

Season 3 · Episode 36

Friday, July 19, 2024 • Duration 27:21

In this episode, Laura takes you on what might be her most bizarre adventure yet: venturing deep into a working silver mine in Potosi, Bolivia. Past a smoking shrine to the local god Tio, she descends into perforated rock with nothing but coca leaves and 192-proof alcohol to keep her nerves steady. This gritty story reveals the harsh realities of life inside the mine, including its history and the people who work there under dangerous conditions. Beyond Potosi, Laura explores Bolivia’s incredible landscapes—from the otherworldly Salar de Uyuni salt flats to the sacred waters of Lake Titicaca—and the cultural highlights of Sucre and the dizzying heights of La Paz. Adventure, history, and unforgettable experiences await in this eye-opening episode.

Italy 1: Rome – The Eternal City, One Bite at a Time

Season 3 · Episode 27

Tuesday, November 21, 2023 • Duration 46:39

Come along with Laura and her kids as they dive headfirst into the chaos and charm of Rome! From the moment we landed, jet lagged and dragging our suitcases through streets full of cars, motos, and sirens, Rome made itself known. We explore the Colosseum, try to imagine what life was like 2,000 years ago, and brave the crowds at the Trevi Fountain—coins in hand, hoping to guarantee our return. Along the way, we taste the classics of Roman cuisine, from Cacio e Pepe to Suppli, and learn that Italian food really is about simple, quality ingredients. Expect a little adventure, a lot of history, and plenty of moments where we just sit back, eat gelato, and watch the city come alive.
