Our Path

Places We´ve Found Ourselves...
1. Banos- canyoning (rapelling and ziplining down waterfalls), one heck of a hilarious 35 mile bike ride through the Andes passing waterfalls every 30 minutes to a neighboring town
2. Casa Victoria- some more time finishing up Spanish classes in Quito and hanging out with our friends at Casa
3. To the Coast- found ourselves in Puerto Lopez, a dusty little fishing village after a torturous but memorable for sure 11 hour overnight bus ride
3. Montenita- we spent about a week in this hippie surfer town. I ended getting to work with Gustavo, this hilarious ex famous Argentine rock star turned chef at a really cool restaurant in town. The girls (and i for a day) got jobs teaching english at some schools in neighboring towns which was a sight in itself considering Lalia and I barely speak Spanish!
4. Worked down the coast to Peru- more overnight bus rides but good news... Peruvians buses are delux (hot empanadas at 3am!)
5. Mancora- another couple days at the beach (rough life huh)
6. Huanchaco- our hostel, an awesome group of people, surfing, another cooking gig for me, and my first dose of legit travel sickness (you know what that means) reeled us in for almost a week
7. Now we find ourselves just outside of Huaraz, the icecream and trekking capital of Peru learning our fare share of S. American inconvenience in the form of broken down transportation at 12,000 ft. Better luck tomorrow getting to the trailhead of our 4 day trek through the Cordillera Blancas!
