Oruro
Posted by admin on October 27th, 2008 filed in UncategorizedOruro es una ciudad boliviana y es la capital del departamento de Oruro. Está situada a casi 4000 metros de altura sobre el nivel del mar. La ciudad se fundó en la conquista de América, en 1606 con la idea de hacer un asentamiento minero para poder extraer plata. En un principio habitaban unas 15 mil personas. La población era una mezcla de etnias entre españoles, criollos, mulatos, negros e indígenas que convivían.
Uno de los principales atractivos turísticos es el carnaval de Oruro. Es un gran evento reconocido en el mundo. Es uno de los mejores carnavales. Se debe reservar con anticipación porque después es imposible encontrar alojamiento.
Además se pueden visitar termas naturales y lagos hermosos como el Poo po y el Uru-uru.

Hola Andres, mi nombre es Casey. I’m currently taking Spanish classes in Washington, DC with a native instructor. Actually I took first Spanish classes in Maryland, but I work in DC now and that's why I take the Spanish lessons in Washington, DC (with a native Spanish tutor). I just wanted to thank you for making this blog and for the articles you write. Like I mentioned, I’m a Spanish student, right now I consider myself to be in an intermediate level. I understand most of what I hear and talk some. I love speaking Spanish and the culture, the Latin American culture was what motivated me to start taking Spanish lessons. I plan to travel to Latin America (Antofagasta, Chile, donde vive lo primos de mi novio). I hope to find Spanish tutors there, since I want to speak Spanish perfectly well! I really like the articles you post. They are very helpful, they are not only interesting, but they also help me practice my Spanish. Even though I don’t understand some of what is written, it helps me a lot to see the words that I’ve learned in my Spanish class used in sentences. I attended even one of the meetups you are promoting on your web site www.learnspanishdc.com and I enjoyed it and learned really much.
