Las Cataratas

-
Ended up the night listening to Kraftwerk while cooking a delicious dish of bucatini. The night is rainy so been at the hostel just chilling.

It has been a long day: walking for about 15km trough the "senderos" of the Iguazù National Park, at Puerto Iguazù, Argentina.

The waterfalls were just amazing. The legend says a god created them to condemn a human being who did not correspond its love. The couple is destined to fall forever down. 
But now the park is one of the most beautiful places on heart. The true love always wins :)

Ubicazione: Puerto Iguazú, Provincia di Misiones, Argentina

A wonderful boat trip from Iquitos, Peru, to Coca, Ecuador. And few more info

If you are an adventurous travel and want to go to Iquitos by boat, and you are in Peru, you will need to go to Tarapoto, from there take a bus to Yurimaguas (about 2hrs) and there you will have 2 options. Fast boat goes everyday at 8pm. It costs 150 soles (included food) and it takes 17hrs to reach Nauta. Then take a 2hrs bus to Iquitos. Slow boat doesn't go every day. It's a cargo ship so you need to wait them to load and unload it. There are a couple per week. But you never know when they leave exactly. You just need to speak with the captain. It takes 3 nights to reach Iquitos, for 100soles, including food. You will need to buy a tapperwear and a spoon for the food they provide, and an hammock where you will sleep, although there are people sleeping on the floor. I took the fast one: my cousin from Italy was on holiday in Peru for a couple of weeks and just 2days in Iquitos, so I could not wait. It is like travelling by bus. Super boring. But to meet my cousi...

Tarapoto: waterfalls, jungle and Tierra Mítica

Tarapoto has waterfalls everywhere. Usually close to town, just need a short "collectivo" ride and then walk through the Amazon. I've chosen just three of them. The Ahuashiyacu waterfall is the nearest to the town, the most famous an also the busiest one. I'd not suggest it. No walk, and a lot of people. This one I don't even know the name. It's close to a bizarre castle in Llamas, a little town close to Tarapoto. The caste has been built up by a random Italian guy. Worth to see it. The last one is Carpishuyacu. Been there twice actually. My favourite as there is a massive rock where to jump from, a waterfall and also some natural hotsprings pools. What else you need to enjoy? During my stay in Tarapoto I've discovered a community of people living in the middle of the jungle, working on their happiness with workshops. The founder is a Greek guy but now about 15 people live there. They are literally building up everything fro...

La Paz is not the capital of Bolivia 😂😂

It's not the capital but in La Paz there are all the government offices, including the official residence of the President of Bolivia. Strange? Well, not as the number of the official languages. We can count about 36 idioms, but the ones still spoken are 14, including Spanish, Quechua, Aymara and other indigenous idioms. More, Bolivia is not a "one nation, one state" country, but a pluri-national state. In La Paz, I guess it's possible to see all this mix of culture, languages and background, which make of it a unique city. As unique it's its urban transport system, characterized by the so-called teleférico. It has 8 lines of different colours and can be used to fly over the city and skip the crazy Bolivian traffic jam. It has a vibrant life in the city center but it's also possible to visit some quiet place such as Valle de la luna, or the Muela del diablo, just outside the town. I'd recommend to visit the Coca museum, where to read all th...
