That friend of mine did not complain about breathing problems in Bolivia but he is quite experienced with those environments as he has also travelled in Peru and Ecuador a lot, including some towns at over 4000m height. He did say Bolivia was more authentic than most other South American countries, probably he means it is less globalised and less internationalised than the other countries who get tourists and expats from all over the world. Bolivia indeed seems 'less travelled' than the other S.American countries. Paraguay may be the same though, as there's not too many travellers going there.
Doesn't Montivideo also have a soccer team called River Plate, just like Buenos Aires have? Probably a reference to the same water that seperates Uruguay from Argentina?

Well, yeah... I would say bolivia is the more authentic country of the Americas since they clearly kept alive their native-indigenous population and culture while Uruguay has no native population at all, they killed them all a long long time ago... Anyway, we do have our own culture that comes from the mix of french, italian, spanish, english and an important 4% of afroamerican population... It's a mix but it feels authentic now.
About River Plate... yeah! River Plate is one of the biggest teams from Argentina. Uruguayan's River Plate is a much more small club with no cups or anything.

A good view of Yosemite I took-- I am totally diggin' the glare.
A note upon his desk
"P.S. Bring Me Home And Have Me!"
Leather elbows on a tweed coat
-Oh!-
Is THAT the best you can do ?
So came his reply :
"But on the desk is where I want you!"
