Adios Ecuador, beinvenidos Peru! We managed to avoid any dramas at the Ecuador-Peru border and thankfully we decided to splash out on a good bus company who allow you to stay on board through the immigration process. The border town was craziness but very interesting when you are viewing it from the top deck of the bus. We arrived in Mancora around 8pm - a long travel day after leaving Montanita at 5am. We didnt change much money at the border because they rip you off and as such, our accomod...

As anticipated, I had a successful beach visit to close out my trip. I spent 7 days in Mancora, Peru, which is very close to the border with Ecuador and a world-known (which I did not really know before) for surfing & kite surfing. The morning waves tend to be good for surfing & then when the afternoon winds pick up, the kite surfers all come out. I took very few pictures, because my days sort of looked like this ---- go to yoga at beautiful resort on the beach with all glass facing ...

Early start. We made our way via taxi to the Ruta Orenses bus terminal. The guy at our hostel was really good at organising a taxi for us and confirming the price beforehand. The 4 hour trip to Machala (Ecuador) cost us $5 USD. After getting the tickets, Taj went and found brekkie. After a short wait, we jumped on the bus. The journey was pretty uneventful, although we had started to prepare ourselves psychologically for the border crossing! Once arriving in Machala, we went in search of some...

We woke up to a scorching hot day on the beach - yeah! We hada nice brekkie at the restaurant next door - Green Eggs and Ham. Nice! (thanks for the tip Jay). Time for relaxin' on da beach.... Sun lounger, great book... life is good. After a morning in the sun, we had sushi for lunch and fresh fish for dinner. We then discovered a great beer. Large bottles of Cuzqueña for 5 soles which is about $2. We then went to a bar (naturally) where we met Carlos and had some more beers. We moved on anoth...

After our stressful border crossing we needed to time to relax and restore our faith in humanity and Mancora was a perfect little place to do this. Within the first few kilometres after leaving Tumbes we started noticing a drastic change in the landscape. The lush green mountainous environment had changed to a dry, hilly and dusty landscape covered in patches of scrub brush. Mancora is a popular holiday destination for Peruvians and foreigners alike and has a few dozen hotels and hostels dott...

... fresh fish around because the local fishermen had celebrated some kind of religious festival five days before and had spent the entire next day drinking beer, and again the next day, and so on with no sign of returning to work to date. The market was buzzing with an equal number of people and flies, the latter swarming over the fish and meat, forcing a new kind of mind control technique to pretend that our meat and fish isn’t coming from those markets.
We eventually parted ...
... with the sun setting.
We met up with Aila and Glen who we knew from Secret Garden, and went to dinner with them. We went to a different place to eat just off the beach where a steely eyed mama dog stood motionless watching us - so Shane and I gave her the rest of our rice dish. I got a salad starter and the others got ceviche. It was a good cheap meal. We went for some drinks and ended up at one place where Aila and I ordered a Chiripirina (not the right ...
... si penize vybrali. Mistni penize se menuji Soles a jsou v kurzu 3 soles za dolar. Konecne jsme si mohli zacit uzivat opet bez starosti. Na plazi jsme si pujcili surf a pokouseli se to naucit ale moc nam to neslo a tak jsme radeji vyrazili na obed. Sushi bylo vynikajici. Behem dne jsme se prochazeli po plazi a koupali a uzivali si slunce. Vecer byly v planu bahenni koupele. Cely vylet byla katastrofa.

... Mancora, which we reached the next morning.
Mancora, well, the first thing you notice arriving from the south and centre of Peru, is the heat, its hot. Really hot. So it was off with jumpers and knitted wool garments , so necessary in the peruvian Andes, and on with the t-shirts and shorts. Nice. We found a place to stay a little bit back from the beach but at a pretty good price, and very comofrtable. So what is there to do in Mancora ...
... clean, great waves, temperate waters and expensive hostals. I couldn´t sleep at all due to the amount of bugs in my room, but i did find ample time to relax on the beach, catch up on reading and journal writing, and getting a killer tan. I swam in the ocean for hours each day, and was even going to attempt kite surfing until i heard it was 45USD/hour, with a minimum of 6 hours needed before going out on your own... well, i didn't do that ...
