Can You Still Kiss With Throat Cancer

Quito II

The center of the old town of Quito is only after 2000 must have been designed, as it looks today: clean and tidy with magnificent buildings from colonial times and classicism. The whole Pastellt in fresh pink Önen the colors orange, mintgr ün, t ürkis, and ocher. F UR belly traders and servants, however, is no more room. An oversupply of opulent churches, boulevards, alleys and courtyards can imagine the atmosphere when things are not as straight rain.

I decide to call the first phone number that I got from local couch surfers. Isabel ordered me into the of chic shopping mall "Centro Commercial Del Bosque" in the new town and get me with a bronze-brown Stra ßenkreuzer Benz brand from. You, 28, photographer, lives with parents and two brothers in an apartment, whose noble chic living room with several chandeliers and gold-trimmed, white wooden furniture would queue a luxury hotel is good. To come into the house, you must pass a security guard. From Unexplained ärlichen Gr easons believes Isabel, I wanted to stay with her , while they had me, for that matter, canceled. You m uences now work the same. At least I get from it even the hint to take the bus to the slopes and starting to take the cable railway to the city hills.

farther hochkurvt the bus tend to want to solve the more temporary brick buildings, chic, colorful blocks from. A wizard collects from passengers quarter dollar coins. At the terminus seem dust, missing roofs, to stray dogs and dog-hut-like dwellings to slum. This is what Hühnchenbratereien and Internet cafes on the doorstep. From a cable car on the other hand is nothing to see. In the alley next to it goes up another bus to the village boundary. Again, there is definitely no cable car. The view is still pretty
: a settlement mosaic that spreads uniformly dense in architectural mix of styles of sinks and hills.

The bus takes me several miles to the north down. The sun is shining now, and sweet Ecuadorian music seeps from the speakers. Below were including "Life Is Life (Opus, 2x)," Brother Louie (Modern Talking), and Boney M. - Boney M. cover themselves or performers. The path through the houses feels quaint.
Ever GE I find Quito in its bustling diversity always besser.Die ride ends for me on a road where the North American style leaked a fast food restaurant following the next. The "Control" (trolley) bus, a kind of quick line, I'm in thirty minutes along with Quito in the Old Town.

I walk through a mix of park and shopping center, where merchants in their shops almost exclusively sell mobile phones. As found in Ecuador on every street corner phone booths, I decide to make up my technical bottleneck of two decadent Kodak disposable cameras. The "Plaza de la Indepencia" (also called "Plaza Grande") with their government and Kirchenpal branches shines in the sun in opulent white and the purple blooms of large bushes. Gradually something similar I suspect, why Quito "City of Eternal Spring" is mentioned. Daf ÜR lack of gastronomic culture: the cafes are usually L Öcher in stone walls with camping tables next to a deep-freeze ühlbox. Where towers over Rio de Janeiro a Jesus, wake of Quito his mother or the Holy Virgin, who is here somehow Ecuador's independence symbolize ängigkeit. At the edge of the ancient old town rocking boat with fresh öhlichen people on board with a water filled down üllten concrete channel of the H ügeln. One s ähe like entirely of styrofoam, h aett not au need to kick two iron cranks.

evening I let cut my hair for two dollars. Serve with English or a combination of two words: "cortos (short) and" no "(not). Interestingly, the hairdresser washed my hair, has after they cut. This washing should have only improve the cutting. At night, the streets in a warm yellow light bathed, occasional streetwalker blink from passers-by to. For me, the day ends with a local club of beer.


colonial in the pedestrian zone.
