Idea for a HUBB "country guide"
Howzit everyone!
I have an idea to add to the main site, a kind of "country guide from people's experiences that'll give people idea about different countries. for instance:
Bolivia
Petrol price- 3.74 bolivianos (0.5~USD) per liter for local plates, 9.8 bolivianos (1.4~USD) for foreign plates.
Traffic police and checkpoints- scarce, usually next to toll booths. very little in cities except la paz.
Police Corruption- relatively high.
Road conditions- Poor on most roads, reasonable between big cities.
Ease of entering: ?
Ease of exiting: easy on the northern border.
local insurance for one year- 190 bolivianos (27.5~USD)
Toll Roads- every asphalt road between cities is a toll road, free for motorcycles.
Roads to avoid- Tupiza-Uyuni - terrible dirt road, not very pretty either. Coroico-Yucuma- VERY dangerous road, construction work until 2015 closes the road from 0700-1700 every day except sunday.
Personal Highlights- Salar de Uyuni, Tupiza area, Samaipata area, Maragua Crater near Sucre, Chacaltaya mountain next to la paz.
I think this could be a useful addition to the main site for people's basic ideas of different countries, and of course more categories could be added. Let me know what you think.
