Welcome to the Jungle

Our Christmas was everything but ordinary. The 5 day hike which ended up being 6 because of violent weather definitely exceeded my expectations. Basic guidelines and rules were not discussed nor was in overview of anything that was yet to come from our guides. Which made it all the better. Walking into the unknown is scary, yet exciting, and it definitely makes the trip all that more memorable. Although I did not know our guides I did trust them with my life and they were simply amazing. Being told too much and what to do all the time is annoying but being able to figure it out on your own is that much more enjoyable and empowering. I would recommend the Lost City hike to anyone who is adventurous, can sleep outside in a hammock listening to the sound of rain, lightening, frogs and other animals I can not tell you what they were, open to dramatic changes in the weather, doesn't mind washing in rivers and doesn't mind getting eating alive by mosquitos. Peace out xoxo
