EECUADOR 
It was in February 2015 when I decided I needed to quit my job, and go ANYWHERE. I went on Kayak Explore, and found a cheap flight to Ecuador. I asked myself if I could really travel alone, especially to a country I knew nothing about.  Without a clear answer, I booked the flight and flew within 2 weeks to Quito. The video speaks for itself. It was one hell of an experience.  

ECOCOLOMBIA 
Within one month of coming home after my trip in Ecuador, I made my way to Colombia. It's hard to describe how much I've fallen for this incredible country. Colombia, you are absolutely beautiful - from the deserts, to the beaches and the lush green landscapes - you have exceeded my expectations ! But what makes Colombia so special are the people. All the smiles, the generosity, the kindness, the sincerity, and the love of life, despite your chaotic history, have been an inspiration.

EPERppPERU and BOLIVIA 
For some reason, I was worried I would not enjoy Peru. I thought it would be way too touristy. In fact, there are so many pockets that had so few tourists and were INCREDIBLE (Huaraz and Huanchaco to name a few). And Bolivia, the altitude hurt but wow, was I impressed with the city life of La Paz. From biking the Death Road to getting stuck in the Salt flats, Bolivia you were full of surprises.
