    Quito

    25 novembre 2019, Ecuador ⋅ ⛅ 22 °C

    The capital of Ecuador lies 2.800 meter above sea level and has 3 mio inhabitants. It has many churches and we visited the Basilica del Voto Nacional where you can climb to the top of the towers. Nothing is really seen from the riots couple of weeks ago. The hostels provides an amazing view over the Old Town of Quito.Leggi altro

    Cumbre Ruco Volcano

    26 novembre 2019, Ecuador ⋅ ☀️ 16 °C

    From Quito we took a cable car that brings you to almost 4.000m and then the 2-3 hours hike up to the Volcano brings you to 4.696m. Its a very nice hike with amazing view over Quito and you feel the thin air. Sometimes we had to climb a bit but it was very safe and at the top kind of cold.Leggi altro

    Tungurahua

    2 dicembre 2019, Ecuador ⋅ ☁️ 8 °C

    We did a two days hike to the Tungurahua Volcano. It's an active Volcano with 5.023m. The first day we went to the Refugio which is located at 3.800m. The Refugio didn't had any electricity so it was a very cold night but with playing UNO and drinking Aguardiente we warmed ourselves a little bit. The next day we got up at 4 am and started the tour up to tue Volcano during the night with flashlights. We saw an amazing sunrise and had stunning views the more up we came. Its very steep and difficult to walk on the volcanic ground. After 4.700 I had to turn as it felt a bit too dangerous for me. Anyway it was an amazing adventure again.Leggi altro

    Isla Santa Cruz

    9 dicembre 2019, Ecuador ⋅ ⛅ 24 °C

    Arrived on the first Island of Galapagos. Already on the first day you see so many animals you have never seen before. 75% of the animals are not living outside of those Islands. The Islands are famous of course because of Charles Darwin who arrived here in 1835. Therefore we also visited the Charles Darwin Center.Leggi altro

    Trujillo

    28 dicembre 2019, Perù ⋅ ⛅ 21 °C

    Came from Mancora by a very comfortable nightbus after 10 hours to Trujillo. Next to it there is Huanchaco where we stayed. A little Surf town next to the beach. We visited both cities and also Chan Chan. This was in 1300 the biggest city of Sout America from the Chimu with at his peak between 60.000 to 100.000 people living there. The Inkan military couldn't take it so they moved a river that ran through the city and basically dried them out and the Inkas could take the city.Leggi altro

    Amazonas Tour Day 1

    9 gennaio 2020, Perù ⋅ ☁️ 28 °C

    On the first day we started our Tour from Iquitos and drove 1,5 hours to Nauta. From Nauta we took a boat and after 2 hours we reached our Amazonas Lodge where we would stay the next 3 days. The lodge was quite comfortable and the food was good once you get used to all the animals and noises around you.

    After dinner we went to a boat tour to explore the rivers. We fed monkeys, saw pink and grey dolphins and when the night with the sunset came we found a baby caiman. Also after the sunset the attack of the mosquitos started.    Leggi altro

    Amazonas Tour day 2

    10 gennaio 2020, Perù ⋅ 🌧 27 °C

    On the second day we woke up at 5 to see the sunrise but it was cloudy. After that we saw huge lily pads. Then we had breakfast and afterwards we had a walk through the Jungle. We got attacked by so many mosquitos this was insane. During walking we had the water till our hips that was quite fun and adventorous.

    Then in the Lodge we found two tarantulas and the guide placed one on my hand. In the afternoon we went fishing and I caught two piranias and one catfish. Then we got catched by a heavy amazonas rain. For dinner we had our catch of the day and it was delicious.

    After the dinner we had a short nightwalk in the where we saw some huge frogs.    Leggi altro

    Arequipa

    17 gennaio 2020, Perù ⋅ ⛅ 25 °C

    Arrived in Arequipa after a 13 hours bus ride from Ica. Arequipa is the second biggest city in Peru also known as the white city because it was built with white blocks. They came from the white stone due to the volcans around it that made the stone white. Arequipa is surrounded by three volcanos where one is still acitve. It's a very nice and silent city. I also visited Routa de Sillar where you can see the white stones.Leggi altro
