Iquitos

Luckily got a window seat on the flight to Iquitos.
We were flying to hours and I never seen such a never ending forrest with this beautiful meandering rivers in between.
Iquitos city: a completely different world.
We got picked up from the airport from a tucktuck wich brought us for 18Soles (4€) to our airbnb.

The streets seem like a raceway for tuck tucks, driven by drivers in all different kind of soccer shirts. Mostly Messi or Ronaldo.
It’s off season so there are barely other gringos walking around.
It’s the biggest city in the Amazon so quite loud, hectic and humid /hot (33*C).

Now, the second day we are on our way into the jungle. Together with Øyvind a Norwegian fisherman we met in Lima and 3 students from Salzburg.
1,5h bus drive and 2h by boat to our lodge were we will be doing different kind of trips deeper into la selva.

There will be no connection so I’ll be reporting approximately by next sunday.Baca selengkapnya
