Baños, Chimborazo
After a 4-hour long bus ride to the next city, Baños. Which city will call its own name "toilet"! ? The scenery along the way was beautiful, and I saw more cloudy rainforests. When I arrived at the "toilet", it seemed that I was the only one on the third floor of the hostel. The boss was very enthusiastic and recommended some nearby places worth visiting to me. in the street…

Shandia, Tena
At 5 o'clock last night, I took a long-distance bus ride from Quito and yesterday's sofa owner to his hometown, a small village in the Amazon rainforest, for more than 5 hours. He contacted me online a few weeks ago to tell me about the native Amazon culture he is particularly proud of, one of the minority Kichwa people who also have their own language…

Quito (1)
The summer vacation is so long and must not be idle, so I decided to go to Ecuador🇪🇨. The reason for deciding to come here is very simple. I found a super cheap air ticket a month ago. Another reason is that it gives Chinese citizens a rare visa exemption, and they also accept the new crown vaccine certificate. Before I came, I knew that the capital Quito was very high, nearly 3,000 meters above sea level. I really arrived last night…

Mexico City (4)
In the morning, I went with my friends to a tacos de barbacoa shop near his work place. This kind of tacos is usually eaten at noon in the morning and closed in the afternoon. It is made of beef in Guadalajara, but it is made of lamb in Mexico City. The meat is tender and super tasty. I also ordered a small cup of consomé broth...

Mexico City (3)
Only went downtown on my third day in Mexico City. As soon as you got off the subway, you saw the National Palace, the Metropolitan Cathedral and the Great Temple. There are many heavily armed armed police on the square, and it is estimated that there will be another demonstration or something. Went to a Mercado Presidente Abelardo L. Rodrigu…

Mexico City (2)
Went to a local market in the morning for quesadilla and pambazo. Quesadilla is completely different from the flatbread baked with a pile of cheese in the United States. Quesadilla in Mexico City generally does not add cheese, and it looks more like empanada. Two days ago...

Mexico City (1)
Mexico City, the capital of Mexico, is a large city with a population second only to Beijing. It's much cooler here than Guadalajara, and it's never too cold or too hot all year round. When he arrived at the sofa owner's house here, he lived with his father. The sofa owner was born in Mexico, but he moved to Chicago and lived in Chicago for 10 years when he was a child, so I just taught in Chicago 10 years ago...

Guadalajara (4)
In the morning, I went to the local market with the sofa owner and ate chili relleno and chilaquiles. These are two common dishes served at Mexican restaurants in the United States. Chili relleno is baked Mexican green peppers stuffed with cheese, then coated with egg flour and fried in a frying pan...

Guadalajara (3)
I chatted with the sofa owner in the morning, and we talked about that he has four brothers and sisters, because Mexico is a country where Catholicism prevails, and his parents have taken their five children to church since childhood. When he was 12 years old, he was very rebellious and resolutely refused to go to church. After "struggling" with his father for a whole year, their father-son relationship eased. When he was about 10 years old, he inadvertently...

Guadalajara (2)
Here in Mexico, the daylight saving time is adjusted on Easter Sunday. One hour was lost a month ago, and another hour is inexplicably lost today. When I was walking alone on the street these two days, if a passer-by who seemed a bit strange came to talk to me or asked me a question I didn’t understand, I usually either ignored it or said “I don’t speak Spanish”, But just this morning...
