Sandy beaches, the warm sun, fresh fruit drinks, surfing and groovin´ reggae and latino tunes... We are in the cute surf village of Montañita, Ecuador! One week already behind us in Ecuador. The first days we spent in Quito. Went for a day trip to Otavalo (two hours from Quito) to check out the local Animal and Handicraft market... The animal market was quite an experience with old Ecuadorian ladies dangling rabbits around from their ears. The Handicraft mark...

We did it!!! The Inca trail is behind us and so is Amazonas! We are now back in Lima again for a couple of days! Tonight is Oasis gig and wappu-celebrations! And tomorrow it is time to fly to Quito, Ecuador, for our last two weeks on the road! The Inca trail was amazing! It was hard, but rewarding! The first day was quite easy, the second day the hardest (only uphill the whole day in high elevation), the third day the nicest and on the fourth day we reached Mac...

We arrived in Peru a few days ago and spent the first days in Lima. We stayed in the area of Miraflores, which is one of the nicer and safer neighborhoods in town.

One of the nights we ended up in Barranco for a few drinks! It was a lot of fun!! Today we arrived in Cusco, which is 3400 metres above sea lev...

Hola muchachos! Valparaisossa ollaan vietetty muutama leppoisa paiva tutustuen kaupungin varikkaaseen ymparistoon. Hieman kuumetta ja flunssaa pukkasi pari paivaa, mutta punaviinikuuri auttoi oireisiin. Ollaan lahinna kavelty ympari kaupunkia, ihasteltu urbaania katutaidetta, maisteltu erilaisia Chilelaisia punaviineja ja tutustuttu paikallisiin elintarvikkeisiin. Huomenna suunnataan takaisin Santiagoon. Torstaina onkin sitten jo aika valloittaa Peru, Macch...

Back in Chile again! Crossed the border to Chile a few days ago and decided to go to a small town called Pucon. The town is surrounded by beautiful lakes, mountains and a few (still active) volcanoes! One of the volcanoes quite close (Llaima) actually erupted while we were here, but luckily it was not that close to Pucon, so no danger!! Waited out a couple of days of rain, before the sun came out again and we could do an extreme activity! We decided to climb the...
