"Freelancing": The Majestic Amazon - one and only



At the weekend I visited Iquitos and Amazon. It was a very interesting experience. It was winter,but too-too hot for me...And too-too humid...30 degrees Celcius, and even more. And more than couple of mosquitoes...Did you know that the mosquitoes notices very well, if there are people around. Even when the mosquitoes are one kilometer away from the people or so...Unbelievable, I think.  I must admit when back in Lima, I prefer it here. At least what comes to temperatures. And it is nicer to take hot showers than cold showers...

Apropos...Those who wait a story about me visiting Machu Picchu or Lake Titicaca, I am sorry to say that they have to wait for a log time. As those destinations I have visited already 3 years ago. But these are the so called Must-destinations for everybody! Of course!



What I liked in Iquitos most, what comes to food, was "Paiche a la Loretana" (Fish  with vegetables) and "Ensalada de Chonta" (Palm heart salad). Very delicious! I never have eaten a salad that light, but good.
