Quilotoa Travel and Tourism Guide

The view of the lake on Sunday morning was beautiful as the sun rose above the crater, much clearer sky than the day before.  We had the option of taking a donkey for th walk back up, but I chose to go on foot - a really tough climb given the altitude and the sand under-foot.  Still, we got to the top after about an hour - a very satisfying walk!

You've probably heard that half the adventure is in the getting there... well catching a bus bouncing along dirt roads, recklessly skirting along ridiculous cliffs, honking the horn to alert any trucks, buses or cows that might be round the corner was pretty fun. This part of Ecuador is cool. The Quilotoa loop is a group of small towns set amongst the gorgeous hills of the Andes and nearby snow covered volcanos. Whats was kinda cool about the journey around these town...

My return to Ecuador, this time i went alone, and for 3month, to learn spanish. now it is like my second home, and i know i will return! (text is in swiss-german...sorry guys..but i don't wanna translate...but there are also a lot of pictures)

I´m spending around 1 year in South America, I´ve had an amazing time. Enjoy my pictures.
