about time

a short note: in my entire time in bolivia, i have not seen a functional clock.
our hotel room didn´t have one. our house doesn´t have one.
the wall clocks in my workplace, all the workplaces of my friends that i´ve seen, every classroom i've been in at my spanish school, and anywhere else that i can´t specifically remember, have been dead.
clocks on computers in internet cafes are always wrong.
needless to say, this isn´t the kind of place where people are perfectly on time.
however, it's not as bad the clocklessness might lead you to assume.
