Arriving in Iquitos

Today I woke up at 6:30 and after breakfast I walked to miraflores to catch a bus to the airpot (3x cheaper than a taxi!!). Then I flew 2 hours. Iquitos is only accessibly by river or by plane & I am now in the middle of a joungle. Iquitos is bigger as expected & a lot of tuck tucks here. Also the mercado is smelling super strong and it is strange to walk there trough..
I met Alex from Francia (Parents from Cambodia, 31) at the hostel and we went to a cafe, then to the riverside and we went after the plaza de armes and a church for dinner.

Alex is doing a Ayahuasca retreat here, where Iquitos is also famous for. In the middle of the nature.

Tomorrow is time for the Amazon joungle trip!!Leggi altro
