Welcome to Tom & Jana's
Perú & Bolivia Journal!
Three amazing weeks exploring two facinating countries.
The origional purpose of our trip was strictly scientific: We were to study the directional flow (or more scientifically, the "swirl") of water in the southern hemisphere, test the combined effects of altitude and alcohol, and analyze current airport security practices.
The results of our data have not yet been compiled, but when they are, we will post the results right here on this website. In the meantime, read about the lighter side of our adventure!
