    Antigua & Acatenango Part II

    26 de julho de 2021, Guatemala ⋅ ⛅ 18 °C

    After resting at the lake we went back to Antigua. The weather forecast was way better then the last time and so we startet highly motivated our second hike to Acatenango Volcano. The hike was super nice but when we arrived the camp, Fuego was hiding behind the clouds. After a hot soup and when it became slowly dark the sky cleared up and we’re able to se Fuego. After a couple of small eruptions it happens: a massive explosion with glowing lava running down to volcano! We truly never seen something like that. We’re so happy that we went up the volcano again. We didn’t want to miss that!!
    The day after we went satisfied back to Antigua. The rest of the time we enjoyed Antigua, did some sightseeing and flew with the drone.
    We found another very special place close by. A little village called “Hobbitenango”. And yes it’s because of the Hobbits out of JRR Tolkien’s books. A couple of friends decided to build up this organic and nature balanced village in the style of the shire, the country of the Hobbits.
    It’s a beautiful place to hang around. Zoe can enjoy the view, buy different kind of handcrafted items or have some food at the terrace.

    And then the day arrived we had to say goodbye to Guatemala. A country which surprised us a lot. Incredible nature, nice villages/ cities and super friendly people. We would have stayed longer but a very specific place is calling us. A destination we dreamed about our whole lives…    Leia mais

    Arrived in Galapagos

    30 de julho de 2021, Equador ⋅ ⛅ 24 °C

    After a long trip from Guatemala City to Quito with a stop over in Panama City we decided to book a hotel close by the airport and don’t spend the 8 hours before the flight to Galapagos there. It was definitely the right decision. The next morning we went early back to the airport and after getting the Galapagos visitor pass we startet. We both were super excited during the trip. After a short in Guayaquil we we’re on our way to Galapagos. Already during landing we recognized the beauty of Galapagos. Turquoise water and black volcanic rocks. With two buses and a boat we finally made it to Puerto Ayora at the main island of Santa Cruz. We’re staying here for four nice in a little hotel/ hostel. It is a very nice place. The family who owns it is super friendly and their helping us with everything you can imagine. We have our own room with bathroom and a huge bed. It’s also very cheap compared to Galapagos prices.
    After check in we went straight to the harbour. Also here incredible colors! Marine inguanas lay at the streets and seals sleeping at the benches.
    For our first day we planned a dive to Gordon’s rock. We saw 7 hammerheads a couple of sea turtles and white tip reef sharks.
    For the upcoming days we try to get a last minute cruise around the islands. We heard right now they’re offering pretty good deals.

    For me a dream is coming true, being on Galapagos. This is such a specific and special place and I’m so excited that we are able to spend 3 weeks in this nature paradise.    Leia mais

    Liveaboard Galapagos - Wolf & Darwin

    6 de agosto de 2021, Equador ⋅ ☁️ 25 °C

    We’re back!
    We spent the last 8 days on the Humboldt Explorer. A little Cruise ship for diving cruises at Galapagos.
    We found very spontaneously a last minute deal for this trip. After a sleepless night full of discussions we finally decided to do it. With the daily dive trips your not able to go to the world famous dive spots at Wolf & Darwin Island far in the Northwest of the Archipel.

    What we experienced in this week is simply not explainable. We never were closer in touch with the wild nature and it’s unbelievable how much life you find in this we’ll secured marine reserve.
    We had 18 dives and we’re lucky to see hundred of hammerhead, Galapagos and silky sharks. We also dove with big schools of Dolphins& sea lions.
    An absolute Highlight was the encounter with 4 whale sharks during our dives at Darwin. This breathtaking moment when you face this 15m long creature for the first time!!
    Additionally we were super lucky to spot an orca and schools of pilot whales.

    It’s not possible to discribe this incredible week, which was worth every cent. A experience we’ll never forget in our lives.    Leia mais

    Isla Isabela - Galapagos

    10 de agosto de 2021, Equador ⋅ ⛅ 23 °C

    After the diving cruise we went to the island Isabela where we spent 4 days. To be honest we felt a bit tired after the time on the boat and the tons of impressions. So we filled our days with long walks along the beach or to the viewpoint at the „wall of tears“. At a rocky spot at the shore we were lucky to see some Galápagos penguins hunting for their dinner!
    We also couldn’t resist to go back into the water but this time just with snorkeling gear. But as if you would expect from Galapagos it wasn’t „just snorkeling“. Right next to the harbour you can find the beautiful little lagoon Concha de Perla where we found more than 15 little eagle rays, a hawksbill sea turtle and playful sea lions.    Leia mais

    Isla San Cristobal

    17 de agosto de 2021, Equador ⋅ ⛅ 22 °C

    The third of the four inhabited Islands of the Galapagos archipelago and our last island during our trip before returning to isla Santa Cruz to fly back to mainland Ecuador.
    You can find sea lions everywhere around Galapagos but the most we found at Isla San Cristobal. It is unreal but fascinating how humans and these actually not harmless creatures coexist. On sundays families spend time together at the beaches and kids playing in the water while the big groups of sea lions are everywhere pretty close. This shows how we can live on this planet and respect it’s nature and creatures.
    We found our most favorite spot for snorkeling: a beautiful bay called Tijeretas. First we watched it from the view points surrounding it during a walk. The day after we rented out snorkeling gear to explore Tijeretas more close. It’s unbelievable how many sea turtles you can find there looking for sea grass to eat between the stones. Also some marine iguanas took a bath and tried to catch some food but the curious sea lions were annoying them by biting in their tails. One of the sea lions was up for playing with us. He came right to our faces just to swim away acrobatically in the very last moment. We really appreciated the opportunity to get so close to these amazing animals. On the last day we were hiking to playa Loberia and the cliffs close by where you can watch different sea birds breading and big waves breaking into the rocks. Again we were super lucky to witness a humpback whale in the ocean jumping. An amazing last goodbye from these very special Islands.
    We went back with the ferry to Santa Cruz Island where we have our last two nights before heading to Quito.

    The three weeks at Galapagos and especially the diving cruise have been definitely the highlight during our trip and an “once in a lifetime” experience.    Leia mais

    Quito, Ecuador

    22 de agosto de 2021, Equador ⋅ ⛅ 13 °C

    After our three weeks at the Galápagos Islands we enjoyed the good wifi at our hostel in Quito 😅 we sorted all the footage, uploaded it to the cloud and startet to edit videos. We have to say that we were a bit lazy the first days after all the action at the island. In total we’ve been there for six days. We were close to the centro historico where you can find dozens of old churches and buildings from the colonial time. We’ve been up with the teleferico to a viewpoint at over 4.000m height and visited the famous „mitad del mundo“ where the equator line passes the northern part of Quito.
    Once more we joined a free walking tour to get a insight of the city. It was perfectly balanced between politics, history, economy, architecture and social life of Quito.
    One of the highlights was definitely to go up to the towers of the basilica del voto nacional, where you have a fantastic 360 degree view of the city.

    For the next three weeks we decided do our first “Workaway” and work at the coast of Ecuador at puerto cayo (between Manta and Puerto Lopez). We both felt like we need a bit a daily routine and time to process all the impressions and experiences of the last months. The workload will be not to hard so we have time to explore the region and make plans for the rest of Ecuador and which country comes next.    Leia mais

    Creative break in Puerto Cayo

    16 de setembro de 2021, Equador ⋅ ☁️ 24 °C

    After 4 months of traveling we needed a little break to take a deep breath. So we decided to do our first „Workaway“ in Puerto Cayo at the Ecuadorian coast. We stayed three weeks at a urbanization project and took care about the facilities, did some gardening and maintenance. Another big task was to regularly clean up the beach. It’s sad to see how the coastline is suffering from the pollution of plastic garbage.

    Besides our work we had enough time to visit Manta and Puerto Lopez, two popular cities at the Pacific Ocean. Due to the fact it’s whale season right now, we joined a whale watching tour to see these magical creatures. The humpback whales come to this region to give birth to their calves.
    The next day during some beach cleaning we spotted two female humpbacks with their babies right in front of our beach. I was able to shoot some great footage.

    I have to say the three weeks fulfilled their purpose. We’re hungry now to move on and explore the rest of Ecuador.
    We’re on the road again.    Leia mais

    MontaĂąita

    18 de setembro de 2021, Equador ⋅ ☁️ 22 °C

    Montañita is famous for two reasons. Surfing and nightlife. After three quiet weeks in Cayo we were up for some action and so we decided to spent the weekend here before heading to the mountains.
    The weather wasn’t that good so we didn’t spend to much time at the beach. So we enjoyed the nightlife even more. Drinking cocktails in the little cocktail bungalows along the streets, watching the crazy people while sitting in a bar or dancing in the nightclubs. You can find all in Montañita. After a fun weekend we’re traveling via Guayaquil to Cuenca in the Andes.    Leia mais

    Free Walking Tour, Cuenca

    21 de setembro de 2021, Equador ⋅ ☁️ 15 °C

    As we did in many cities before, again we used a free walking tour to get a overview of Cuenca and some insider recommendations. Our guide Paul was great and showed us all the important stuff in this beautiful place. We were surprised about how modern, clean & welcoming this cities in the middle of the Andes is. We immediately fell in love with the historic buildings, parks and friendly people. Cuenca is definitely a must see in Ecuador. The next days we’ll continue to explore the city and the beautiful nature surrounding it.Leia mais

    Cajas National Park

    22 de setembro de 2021, Equador ⋅ ☁️ 9 °C

    By bus, we went to Cajas National Park. The part is located in the Andes approximately one hour away from Cuenca. Normally you can explore different hiking trails to amazing view points and little lakes. We were a bit unlucky and had lightly rain all the time. So we decided just to hike a short round trip around one of the lakes. We do not have the well known beautiful pictures with blue sky and alpacas in front of the mountains but hey 🤷🏻‍♂️ it was still fun.Leia mais
