This post was written by students, Max and Noa, about the group’s time in Otavalo.
After dropping off our stuff at our hostel in Otavalo, we set out for a hike to a waterfall and then to a condor park. The waterfall was beautiful. We all took photos and some of us decided to submerge ourselves under the waterfall. It was a great experience!

We then ate lunch with the group and went off on a hike to see a condor show. After much hiking, we never found the condor park, though the views at the top of the mountains were well worth the journey. After taking some much needed showers and naps, we went out for a night on the town at a restaurant nearby. There was live music and great food!
This morning, we walked around the market, got some snacks, and relaxed at a wifi cafe. We had lunch in Otavalo, then came back to our village, Iltaqui, where we went on a hike. Tonight, we look forward to a yummy dinner and bonfire with s’mores!
