Finally a decent map of where I was in Loreto / Amazonas, Peru. From Tiwintza in the top to Yurimaguas, fully by boat. See this post (and others)

It’s not too big anyway, just a lovely little town in the Ecuadorian middle of nowhere

Some criticism on the walls about the hostel I was staying in in Cuenca, or better said about that specific room. I thought it was pretty fine, together with the hostel. But the comments are quite, erm, creative anyway

On my way back I decided to look at the other side of the Podocarpus National Park, near Zamora. A lot of photo’s so check it out!

…. join us ….

Some more Banos. The first one is from the piscina El Dorado, with termal baths, the others are from the zoo .

Chimborazo is the world’s highest mountain, at least if you count from the earth’s core and also the nearest point on earth from the sun. I took a mountain bike and went down from 5000 meter. Too bad – of course – the weather was kinda bad. Then again if you really want to see the vulcano, get of your lazy ass.

Plata is silver, isla is Island. It’s near Puerto Lopez and called ‘the poor man’s galapos’.

And I was pretty close!

In the series ‘photos still left on the drive’ today Parque Pumapungo, an archeological site in Cuenca
