Quito - Pre riots

LOVE QUITO!
We arrived off the bus in Quito at about 4am, after a ferry bumpy ride ( Betty even managed to lose her shoe… just one) with no room booked. Very successful backpacker move! Luckily the hostel we were at the following few nights had 1 bed left, so me and Betty managed to get a few hours sleep top and tailing in the bottom bunk bed 😂
Secret Garden became like a second home the amount of time and money we spent in the rooftop bar! The first couple of days included a lot of coca tea due to the high altitude that we weren’t used too but we still enjoyed the city a lot!
The walking tour was fun, and even included chocolate tasting. We took the cable car up to Pichincha Volcano… chose not to hike this one though! The views were still nice tough when the clouds decided to clear! We went out for some drinks with some girls from the cable car but the nightlife wasn’t very busy!
Another popular thing to do in Quito it to visit the centre of the earth where you can stand on the actual equator line and learn/take part in different activities, like balancing an egg on top of a pin which is apparently only possible on the equator!Read more
