Ecuador!! All in one place.

It is impressive how everything is close, and in just a few hours driving from Quito (Higland)

In this trip I want to show the landscape, biodiversity and culture in the Higland, so this trip is a combination of hikkings and Visiting Weiv points, Volcanos, Landscapes, Twons, forest and looking for some interesting animals!
