What's up Quito? |
|
Quito has so many awesome parks. There's something for everyone here. Where's my skateboard when I need it? |
|
A brewery! Right next to the hostel! Finally some good beer! By far my favorite part of Quito. |
|
This church had the most elaborate decor. |

The big ol' group of white tourists. |
Took a bus from Otavalo to Quito. To save money and see the city better, I walked from the bus station to the area with all the hostels. 5 hours later I was tired and full of regret. Either way, I found an awesome hostel that has a ton of travelers staying there. Definitely the most Americans I've met in one place. Won't help my Spanish but it brings a level of comfort that I'm okay with. The absolute best part about this hostel is that it's next door to Bandido Brewery. Colombia and Ecuador have a complete and utter lack of good beer. Just a couple bad pilsners to choose from. Getting some tasty IPAs and stouts from Bandido completely rejuvenated me.
I also joined a free 3 hour tour of the old town section of Quito. Lots of interesting history here. Overall though, I'm not very psyched on Quito and am ready to move on. Tomorrow I might head to Banos and explore some waterfalls, hot springs, and potentially go on a rock climbing trek up in the glaciers. Yeah, that sounds better.
