Markets, madness and a fond farewell
Sandwiched in between our time in Banos, the Galápagos Islands and our flight out of South America, we spent about 4-5 days in Otavalo and Quito.
We travelled to Otavalo directly after Banos with the main purpose of visiting the Otavalo Market - one of the largest and most unique in South America. While the market is on everyday, the …
Quito - am Mittelpunkt der Erde
Gleich zum Start mal für all diejenigen (mich eingeschlossen), denen das bisher nicht soooo bewusst war, eine kurze schlaue Information: Ecuador heisst deshalb so, weil es am Äquator liegt... ;o)

Farewells but for most … “see you in Cusco” which I hope to do when our travelling paths cross again and I can hear about their Peru and Inca Trail experiences.

Höga höjder
... har bestigit berg mycket högre en detta utan syrgas! Trotts att vi inte nådde toppen var turen väldigt fin med fantastiska vyer och häftigt landskap. Idag är den sista dagen i Quito.

TravelPod Member ReviewsHostal El Arupo Quito
we stayed not at the main hostal then at the new opened sister B&B just one block away. that means also barrio la mariscal. a very nice house, running by a young ecuadorian family. nice place, clean rooms, kitchen for use, breakfast included, common area and free wifi in the whole area. not the cheapest place, but a very good value.
