    • City of equator. Always had a hard time remembering ‘Ecuador’ until I realized that ecuador is Spanish for equator.

      Just out of curiosity, staying in the highest capital city in the world, did you have any special feeling physically? Looking at that tasty food, is that curry chicken/beef? Is this all meat meal a typical lunch there?

      • The soupy meal is kind of typical. The one I had was with seafood. In the hostel there was a guy feeling sick from high altitude, but I'm okay. Have been trekking in a lot higher area in Nepal and still okay. :D
        • Thanks for this. Many people would experience high altitude sickness, glad that you didn't. Interesting food too. :)
