Causerie Called “Cotacachi” – Part 2

Ok, I’m back. “Welcome to Cotacachi”! – To a “Tour of the Town”

This part of Calle 10 de Agosto is quite rough, but soon you will see the more “modern” Cotacachi. Just watch your step! If you trip and fall, it is not the municipio’s fault, it’s yours, because you do not look where you are going. Also remember, pedestrians are less important than traffic. Dodge and dash wherever you can. We have three traffic lights in the town – a real “high light” for Cotacachi – we are so impressed with them that we even take pics of them!. What a bunch of spoiled brats you are!

Causerie called “Cotacachi” – Part 1

IMG_0090_450x338

I live in a small town called “Cotacachi” in Ecuador, with two huge inactive volcanoes in full view – the one is called “Imbabura” and the other “Cotacachi”. On a clear day the views of these volcanoes are stunning. Before I drag you off to see the volcanoes, I invite you to accompany me as I take you through a “tour of the town”, and then we will take a look at the stunning scenery surrounding this little town, famous for its leather goods and music. Put on your running shoes – there is a lot to see.
