A rewarding hike into the caldera of Quilotoa.

A visit to one of my favorite museums in the world, where I discover a love of pre-Columbian art.

Ecuador’s most famous artist’s home and museum, and it’s most bohemian neighborhood.

Chasing parrots and parakeets, and a final hike through the jungle in the rain.

Bird watching in the jungle canopy and jungle walks along the lagoon.

A quick flight but a world away, the Amazon awaits.

A climb up the mountain to the Virgin of the Panecillo, and a visit to the Iglesia de San Francisco.

An introduction to Quito, and a breathless first weekend.

My first post-Covid trip, an amazing week in Iceland as one of the first groups of tourists allowed back in the country.
