On the picture, 3 cacao pods and 1 papaya. We actually opened the pods, chew the cacao seeds to let them dry and later on fry them to eat the pure cacao. Yammy!

We went to an indigenous village to discover how do they survive there in the middle of the jungle. We followed that grandma in ttheir yuka plantation. Yuka is a kind of potato that one can make bread out of it... which we also did!

The tarantula was found on a tree next to our lodge. She was there, waiting for her dinner to come around. This kind of spider does not build webs, they hunt!

Another city, another free walking tour! Well that one wasn't very entertaining but at least it gave us an impression of the city's vibes. This square is the main one of the City with the presidential palace, the town hall and the oldest church in the capital.
