Field notes
What this situation tells you about Bolivia
Its chapters hold 36 field notes. Here are 3 of them.
University buildings in Sucre's centre can be old houses built around patios, where room numbers do not always follow a clear order. Asking for the building and the floor ('planta baja', 'primer piso') saves a lot of wandering at 6:55.
Bolivia Pass
Sucre draws students from all over Bolivia, especially from Potosí, Oruro and the countryside of Chuquisaca, so shared flats often mix people from different regions with different habits, food and schedules. That mix is part of the experience.
Bolivia Pass
In many flats the electricity and water accounts are in the owner's name or in one tenant's name. It can help to ask whose name the account is in, so you know who receives the bill and who pays the company.
