My travels to the largest city of Ecuador where pretty uneventful! Nothing went wrong and everything ran pretty smoothly which was nice. I flew from Boston to Miami and from Miami to Guayaquil. At MIA (Miami International Airport) I met up with Gabriel which I was very suprised to see him! I had thought that he was arriving before me but I guess there was a mess up and so we where both arriving together! In the termal waiting to leave for Ecuador I met Miss Teen Canada who was going to the World competion held here in Ecuador!! haha that [View Full Entry]
Nun bin ich schon einen Monat hier in Puerto Ayora, Galapagos und schon mitten im Alltagsleben. Nachdem ich einige Wochen Ferien in der Schweiz und Italien genossen habe, fing ich am 22 Juli meine Arbeit als Voluntaria in der Camera de turismo an. Zum Glueck muss ich hier nicht 100% arbeiten, und ich habe Zeit noch eine andere Beschaeftigung zu suchen, denn nur vom voluntariado wird man nicht reich... Die ersten paar Wochen verliefen ganz ruhig, wir organisierten verschiedene Kurse u.a. ein curso de cocina con productos del mar. Wir kochten 4 Tage lang mit einem local Kochchef verschiedene Re [View Full Entry]

Chilling out in Vilcabamba
South America » Ecuador » Vilcabamba
Day 51: Tuesday 19th August - Chilling out after not much sleep Arrive in Vilcabamba at 7am. The hostel I'm staying at is 2 miles outside the town but the bus drops me at the entrance. Although I'm shattered after spending the night sleeping on buses/the bus station I'm immediately energised on seeing the sweeping views of the valley from the hostel. I think after the views from the black sheep on the Quilotoa loop, it must be the best view I've had in Ecuador. Laze about the hostel talking to fellow travellers in the morning until my dorm is ready. [View Full Entry]

Well, this is not going to be the blog entry you were all waiting for, but that is ok. A friend of mine, Mary, just ¨tagged¨ me. Now I know what you are thinking....what kind of kinky things is Jeremy getting into down there in Ecualand? Rest assured, this is just a game bloggers play - why? I don´t have the foggiest idea, but I am game to give it a whirl. So I have to: * link to the person who tagged me - mary at http://www.travelingstorywriter.com/ * post the rules on the blog - the rules are here with [View Full Entry]

Buenos dias! Well, here I am on my first holiday for over 18 months to the Galapagos Islands and Ecuador. I was worried the island bit wasn't going to happen! About 4 weeks before my departure the travel agent told me the cruise I'd booked had to be cancelled because the boat we were going to be on had an accident and started sinking! After a week of panic and trying to figure out an alternative, the tour company (Intrepid) offered an alternative land based tour of the islands which didn't visit as many islands as the original tour but I [View Full Entry]

As you can guess from the title, I am nearly finished my time here in South America. Cant believe it. I´ve had such an amazingly fantastic time here, so in a way, im sad to leave, but im also grateful that its turned out so well. So, these last two weeks have been very eventful. Right, so starting off with last last week. On wed, the whole lot of us were assigned to clear the channel trail. Anyways, my previous experience on that particular trail told me that it was not the safest (your walking on the side of a mountain, [View Full Entry]

Hi everyone here is the Amazon jungle blog. Make the most of them there are only two more to go!!! I´d been wanting to visit the Amazon since landing in Latin American having heard so much about it. The jungle and Banos were the last two visits in Ecuador and it would have meant having seen everything on the list and spending two months in the country!! Previously the most time I´d spent in one country was Oz and that was five weeks. After putting back my flights to Rio by 2 weeks I set about trying to pick a lodge [View Full Entry]

The Rough guide rated Banos highly and although I wanted to spend a good few days there a day trip from Quito worked out really well and we had a great time in the town and seeing all the waterfalls. Baños lies four hours from the capital city of Quito; it is a peaceful little city on the slopes of Tungurahua Volcano at 1,820 meters above sea level. This Andean village is surrounded by snowcapped volcanoes and has wonderful thermal springs. The impressive snowcapped volcanic peaks that surround Baños are four in number: TUNGURAHUA (5,061m), CHIMBORAZO (6,310m), ALTAR (5,320m) and CARIHUAI [View Full Entry]
