A Weekend in Mindo, Pichincha, Ecuador [02:53]
This is a small collage of our time spent in Mindo, Pichincha, Ecuador from May 27th until May 29th, 2011 on a break from studying abroad at la Universidad San Fransisco de Quito. We began with the views of the town and the greater part of the video is from the hike of the Sanctuario de Cascadas; a twenty minute cab ride from the town's beautiful center. If you are a traveler, message me for trip advice, as my group was able to learn copious amounts of information from our hostel owners. The city is unbelievably beautiful and if you get a chance to visit, don't let it pass. It's a $2.50 two and a half hour bus ride to the northwest of Quito. Enjoy!
