The Coffee Song
... off on a long long journey to Ecuador. After an 8 hour bus journey we arrived in the pretty colonial town of Popayan and stayed on the square where we spotted our first Lama. The next day a 7 hour bus to Ipiales on the border.

Then back to Ipiales to cross the border and another 6 hour bus and taxi journey to ...

The town is also really nice, decored in colourful paint and the locals support a cowboy esque attire. The food is cheap and cheerful, and fresh from the neighbouring cows and chickens. The trek to Valle de Corcora has me slippin n´slidin allll over the place covered in ...
Dali's Dreamscape
... intimate experience. Tours were conducted by the family who owned the farm, affording visitors the opportunity to not only have lunch with the family, but also to take part in the steps required to process and roast the beans.
Their advice was taken with a grain of salt, as they complained that portions of the hike involved trudging through deep mud. It was raining fairly heavily in the region recently, which would have definitely ...
