Here I am.
Sitting in front of a computer
the same Matti Salo& Ilari Saaksjarvi have used many times
the motorbikes running on the street
wandering soon to the city with a Londoner called Elizabeth,
a medical student who apparently knows even less spanish than I do.
Landed on the airport of Iquitos
about an hour ago
almost hyperventilated or cried, cannot be sure which one more
when I saw the never ending rainforest for the first time
and the uncomprehensible heat just swallowed me into its' caress
and I saw huge, colourful butterflies gathering on trees of dirty streets.
3+4+4+12+4+1,5 hours
that's how long it took me to sit me on this chair,
and that's how many thoughts it created in my mind.
I was so nervous,
but when I landed to Lima
all seemed so right!
Tomorrow,
we leave at 10 am to our quest...
Until then, this unbelievable town will have to tell us what is it about.

VastaaPoistaThere is no reason to envy somebody for character traits that are available to anybody, through practice. You just decide to be brave and follow the necessary steps. I am happy that I have met a valiant girl like you Essi. You are living my dream at the moment.
VastaaPoistaNicely written about the landing. I used my imagination to see the things you see, but if you wish, put up some photos too :)
