ONE STURDY TRAVELLER.
If you have ever had a bad cruise or
travel experience, you may want to view it
against one 10-year old Bolivian boy’s
trip after he stowed away in the
compartment of a truck he was hoping
would take him to his mother.
According to reports, the boy had thought
the truck was travelling from his Bolivian
home city of Oruro to Cochabamba
where his mother is staying.
On the contrary it turned out the truck
travelled for three days and 500kms with
the boy concealed in a compartment.
To add to the difficulty, the route the
truck took was across the Andes
mountains 3,000 metres above sea level.
After three days the boy snuck out of
the truck whilst it was stopped in Chile,
where he was taken in by a family who
cared for him until he could be taken home.
