Hello beautiful people :) We are on the side of the world that makes us happiest and enjoying life, it is awesome being married to the man I love, life is so exciting and we make a great pair of 'camotes.' We miss you guys, particularly those who made us feel welcomed again in NZ and who contributed to the good parts of our visit there For the people who aren't from NZ, I've attached photos from our trip there - the travelling part was truly lovely, although I could not get used to the cold snow! We are planning to [View Full Entry]

The End of a Long Journey... Africa
AND THE BEGINNING OF ANOTHER INCREDIBLE, LIFE-LONG ONE!!! Thank you to everyone who supported us along the way, from the beginning of Cassy´s ´proposed´ trip through South America, to not getting past Costa Rica, her meeting the tico of her dreams, and to the beginning of a blissful marriage. All our love Cassy and Randall [View Full Entry]

Hey guys I hope you are all well. I can finally send you all some photos and catch you up on whats been happening since the last blog. In brief (email me if you want more details and dont forget to tell me your news too!!): I moved out of Funky Monkey around new years after finding a lovely house to rent in Santa Teresa. At the same time I started a serious relationship with my friend Randall (a tico guy) who at the time worked in a friends bakery there. Things are fantastic with him and we are together all [View Full Entry]

Hi everyone There is not much to tell, except that I am still having a blast back in Santa Teresa and enjoying spending more time here with friends. Im currently living and working at the Funky Monkey Lodge. The house we had paid for happened to be moved in by a bunch of other people while I was in Ecuador and my friend was in Mexico. The landlord seemed to think he could get away with the two sets of rent. Hah. We let it go anyway because we got offered jobs at Funky Monkey straight away and are able to [View Full Entry]

Ive made it back home to Costa Rica and will update you even if you dont want it, since I have free internet in San Jose. :) Well, what a mission! It started yesterday in Ecuador when I picked up my new passport (after the other one was stolen). My credit card hadnt arrived yet but they can send that to me in Costa Rica. Anyway, they were all doom and gloom at the South African consulate, telling me if I didnt go to Ecuador immigration to get my entry date stamped into my new passport, I would be fined $300 [View Full Entry]

I feel like such a loser keeping on updating you guys with no photos but I´m bored so like to write, and dont worry those pics are being developed right now! The last few days I´ve been travelling Ecuador, seeing the most popular parts of the central Andes bit. Otavalo, north of Quito, was a fantastic couple of days in which I splashed out at a truly beautiful hostel ¨Cabañas el Rocio.¨ For those of you visiting Ecuador, stay here even for just a night - it´s worth it with its authentic brick and wood buildings, stunning views of the mountains [View Full Entry]

How did I come to be staying inside a volcanic crater?? Well, I walked a few kms up the side of a mountain close to Mitad del Mundo, came to a ridge, looked down into a pit of cloud, then descended 300m along an extremely steep, rocky, path into the crater - and discovered it housed a bunch of farms and a lovely hostal. This crater is called ¨Puluahua¨ and is one of only two craters in the world that are inhabited (the second is in Japan). Puluahua crater was formed after an eruption 2000 years ago. The volcano is still [View Full Entry]

I´m in the north, now I´m in the south... ooh ooh now I´m in the Middle!! Yes, it was exciting :)
La Mitad del Mundo city and monument are not as exciting as you´d think really. Most interesting was tagging along on a tour at the ethnographic museum and learning about the diversity of Ecuador´s indigenous cultures. From hispanic fishermen to afro-ecuatorians to amazonians to chino highlanders. Its amazing the differences and the histories. So after spending a pretty boring time at Cuidad De La Mitad del Mundo, I had an awesome tour at the real middle of the world (calculated by GPS) museum. I had an amazing guide and learnt so much. 1. The ancient incas of ecuador built a temple [View Full Entry]

This is part of Quito old town. Very tranquil and beaufiful
2 days ago - the day after I arrived in Ecuador - I was walking down a popular tourist street in Quito city with my backpack - complete with all my belongings expect my clothes. I felt something drip onto my shorts as I walked but ignored it until a man came up and said ´excuse me, you have something on your shorts, can I help you remove it?´ I was surprised he would bother but was like, um... ok. He pulled napkins out of his pocket and told me to look behind me at where the stain was. I turned, [View Full Entry]
