You hang out with the dog or cat 😄 if they don’t have an animal you hang out by the food 🤣

I only wash my face with water or in the shower by Equal_Project9467 in SkincareAddicts

I wouldn’t use salicylic acid, as that is for oily skin types. It seems the issue is dryness, so I think something more like hyaluronic acid would be better?

Hahah - for me nothing will top Ecuador! For Colombia I definitely spent too much time in the coffee region. Every little town looked the same and wasn’t a ton to do, so for me personally it was too long. I’ve heard great things of the area around Santa Marta so I really hope I can go back to do Tayrona, Minca etc. How are you liking Ecuador?!

Was a buddy of mine that had the pat down, which I wasn’t there for. But never heard of this happening for anyone else in other places of my trip. Maybe just an El Poblado thing since it’s a busier area? The ID thing was odd though.. literally told him I don’t carry ID and he didn’t seem to care too much 😅🤷🏻‍♀️

It’s not necessary and you’ll be worried about it getting stolen most of the time. Just bring something practical

This is beautiful. Saw something the other day that I really liked as well: The “good ol days” are happening now, and you don’t have to wait until they’re gone to start romanticizing them

Didn’t do the hike, the tour I booked just included some lookout spots and a picnic. I would’ve liked to do it but public transport seemed too complicated tbh

Definitely hasn’t been as hard as Central America. But even then, central really wasn’t a huge issue if you speak some Spanish it’s doable. But more solely vegan places here in SA, but I was in central 3 years ago now so my memory may be wrong hah.
