You Know You're in Cochabamba When....

1)You have to pay for toilet paper in a public bathroom.
2) You can’t flush your toilet paper.
3) You have to leave your purse in a locker before you can enter the grocery store.
4) When you drive, the “right of way” belongs to the first person in the intersection.
5) To find everything you need, you have to walk to 5 different stores within a 10 block radius.
6) You’re clothes are stiff from being line dried.
7) You’ve bought 5 different converters/ power strips because you keep blowing them.
8) Store clerks can’t understand why you would want a lined notebook when they have perfectly good notebooks with graph paper.
9) You’re nose is continually clogged from the dust and fumes, and the tissues smell like methanol.
10) You have to be sure to ask for your water “without gas!”
