Arrival in Puerto Maldonado








I have attached some pictures :)

They include the hostel I'm staying at and a bit of the town I am currently in :) My boat doesn't leave until Sunday now so there won't be any jungle pictures until then :( However as you can see by the "forest" outside my hostel door, I'm not far :)

It's a crazy experience and a complete 180 to life back home, but I'm loving experiencing a different culture and lifestyle. Also everyone is extra nice :D

Lessons I've learned on Day 2:

#1: Do not leave out protein bar wrappers out after eating them.....if you leave them they will come........bugs...the bugs will come

#2: Inspect mosquito net BEFORE pulling it down.......bugs

#3: Always tuck in mosquito net under mattress

#4: Eyeglasses don't block deet....be wary of aim.....stinging lasts few seconds -shrug-

#5: Resist urge to hunt for that stray cat meowing on the other side of the street lol

Until Sunday ^_^
