This week I'm at three cities in China: busy Hong Kong, fun Guangzhou where I wore traditional clothes in an old town, and peaceful Zhuhai with beautiful palaces by the water.
At my friend Rob’s farewell party in Magdalena, I met a Peruvian Hairless Dog, an ancient, friendly, nearly furless breed that shows the unique charm of Peru. A surprising and unforgettable sight!
This week I tried Sicilian foods like arancine, cassata and granita. They are made with local ingredients, and they represent how the food comes from the sea and plants around Sicily.
Since we last caught up, I've been exploring outside the city of Quito. I searched for granite at Río Blanco in Pimapiro, spent a weekend exploring in Mindo and visited friends in Cotacachi.
