ITALY
QUITO
THAILAND
Strangely familiar by Freddie on May 21, 2010

My experience in Quito thus far can be summarized in the 2 words that comprise the title of this post.  I have had the pleasure of traveling all over the globe in my life time and never have I adjusted so quickly to living in a foreign country .  When I first arrived here 3 weeks ago today I had no idea that this city and country would win me over so quickly.  I think it’s the colonial architecture that reminds me of my time in Mexico, or maybe it’s the Spanish that is beautifully spoken all around, the music, or the food that is so delicious. Something makes me feel that  I have been here before and I probably liked it back then too.  To be fair though it hasn’t been all perfect for me here, we have been repeatedly warned about the safety concerns in around the city, I have yet to find a job and am still trying to make sense of the Ecuadorean way of life.  I am making a trip along with a friend to Mindo which is an awesome little town about 2 and a half hours from Quito.  The place is supposed to be in a cloud forest and be full of animals and amazing plant life for me to photograph. I can’t wait. Hope to have some good shots for this weekend.
