The love garages of rural Bolivia are a raw form of sexual haven. Modelled on the love hotel, a type of short-stay hotel designed for the sole purpose of sexual union, they provide a space for intimacy in a society where several generations of a family live together under one roof and where privacy is rare. There are no rotating beds, ceiling mirrors or silk bed sheets here; the only indication of their intended use can be found in the suggestive yet tasteful murals on the end wall. Each of the seven spaces is designed as a simple garage (one is extra long to accommodate estate cars) in which a car can pull up and a large curtain can be drawn behind you. Typically, users pay £1 for an hour of privacy. Each unit has a trap door for passing drinks. In a country where values remain staunchly traditional and dividing walls remain thin, these places offer a welcome reprieve.
