Ecuador

[happynz]

Quito looks a bit rundown.

Looks alright to me, but I'm a New Zealander (a prime target according to Dill's quote).

[klong toey]

Nice thread some interesting spots to hang out at night with the locals. Can't green you I'm out of ammo so I've got to butterfly .

[tomcat]

...I assume you're heading to the Galapagos at some point...otherwise what is the point of Ecuador?...

[hick]

Southern Ecuador = The Amazon + A Shaman I'm acquainted with...

As much as I'd like to,...
..it all just looks too touristy for my taste.

I don't really give in to those hot spots unless wifey is along.
Maybe next time.

[hick]

Slight chance I'll venture up to Villa de Levya, Columbia as well as I'm looking for someone off the grid living in those parts (a nutter story).

May also have to wait,...set to arrive in LA on Nov 1 for a stint.

how's your Spanish?

Quechua later, thanks for the photos the distressed concrete looks like here or China a bit unloved, did you try guinea pig yet?

[Bogon]

Great thread!

...so my mate was asking when your gonna get to the beers and women photo part?

Does that qualify as red meat? Pink maybe? I dunno,...on a much more strict diet than usual...

Thanks

As much as I'd love to oblige,...I've made promises which don't include boozin,' whorin,' or tourist trappings.

Wonder if your mate will settle for Ayahuasca brew and otherworldly visions?

[hick]

PS: An hour walk...maybe saw a dozen shaggable birds. That'd be x 3 in Los - 5 in Korea.

Anyway, brighter morning:

Happy?

Split from daily moan:

Glad I'm moving today (near bus station).

This hostel has the rudest staff, zero English
(I know, but they're in the accom biz), not helpful and just,...assnuggets.

Cheap tho and a decent room.

Added bonus is my neighbors...Lebanese family of the loudest caliber.

Wife just moans and complains on the phone day and night for all to hear.

Get some tips from the Leb lover eh...
Great off the beaten track of a place I may never see, it does look a bit grim , why are you in the city waiting for transport to islands or Andes?

Do you feel as safe as Bangkok or rural Thailand most of Latin America has a lot of violent crime from my timein Colombia and Mexico only Cuba felt robber free as there was hardly anything to eat or pinch in the sticks

[hick]

I feel safe enough but not as much as Asia, so don't venture out late.
Plus my Spanish is shite.

yeah, bus tomorrow to Amazonia

got some peeps there

It's vivid

[david44]

Excellent look forward to an update
nearest I had to Ayahuasca is reading Earl's vivid dribble drinking posts in Ayuthaya but sure your journey will a trip, great thing I discover about TD the crazier you are the more they love it, porridge piss and pies in land of smirks.

Did you know the nation is named after an imaginary line that girdles the earth, do be careful with dem hallucegenic toads (not the Ibarra hookers) as you could end up with a leakywick

As they say in eMquartier bum voyage, chuoacabra viajes

Thanks David

The Aya journeys (not my 1st) are so incredibly personal that I won't be waxing on in depth via public posts, but will be happy to answer any inquiries by pm/email.

Hick, let Pat out of the case and send him round to sort them out, he'll be getting cramp by now.

Great photos by the way

El camino luminoso no puede caminar

[Luigi]

It certainly gets the morning sun.


Looking forward to the pics of the Amazonian birds.

[HuangLao]

I hear that Bolivia is much more the fashion among the trendy Hipster types.
The bomb.

[happynz]

I was in Bolivia last year. I saw quite a few non-indigenous folks dressed like this...



Also a lot of youngish backpackers that looked like what one would expect -- whatever you'd expect.

^ the chix look mormon, yay?
