ECUADOR

Though one of the smallest countries in South America, Ecuador certainly packs a punch! So much to see and do, and all within 3-5 hours' bus-ride!

The atmosphere certainly changed when I crossed into Otavalo, Ecuador where most of the people I met were indigenous people in traditional wear, more reserved and laid-back. Traditionally-woven alpaca sweaters and fabric started appearing everywhere too.

My most fun time with a Hospitality Club host is here in Quito. They very kindly accompanied me all over Quito and I got to experience many typically Ecuadorean things! We later met up in Banos and had the time of our lives soaking in the wondrous nature!

Further south in Cuenca, another host introduced me to Reiki and taught me how to see people's aura. Gosh, I think I am gifted (well, maybe)!! This led me now to my interest in Reiki and crystals.

Travelling is not just about visiting places and capturing sceneries on films. It is about opening your heart, your mind, your eyes, your pores to soak in ALL SORT of experiences that the wonderful people in the world are willing to share with you.
