Awesome Week in the Amazon Jungle

When i arrived in Quito, i wanted to go asap to the Galapagos Islands, to learn Spanish. I was a little bit sad,that the organisation didn’t work in advance – but there was a good reason behind it. So i met Eugenio, to speak about my travelling plans and the other options, the school offers. Three days later i found myself in the wonderful relaxed Yarina-Lodge, to enjoy 5 halfdays private Spanish lessons with my wonderful teacher Vanessa and 5 verry interesting halfdays/nights exploring the rainforest, also private, with Wilson, In fact, that Vanessa also likes to travel, she was able to teach me the most important words and grammar i use during my trip in South America. But not just the language, she also told me where the best travelling spots are and how i easiely get there.! I also learned a lot from the guide. He took all the time it needed, to explain me (of course in Spanish and Quechua) the animals, the plants and also the life in the rainforest.
