The lack of political stability is not new to South America and I believe that the different views among them added up so much that conflicts are not avoidable anymore. Look for example what happened. Right after desert it started to rain and it poured so that the entire camp got flooded. A few minutes later the electricity disappeared because of the water and we were sitting in the dark. We changed to another room which was slightly better and stayed there one night. The next day we moved to another room again before finally leaving for a better hotel. It was important to stay in a good place.
