trekking in the jungle

This time I’ll write for english readers. Sorry about the mistakes cause my English is getting worst and worst

As soon as I arrived to Luang Nam Tha I booked a trekking of 2 days and 1 night in a village with natives of the laten tribu. Although a little bit hard, the experience was very good,

We were a group of 9 people, and as many times I’ve been very lucky with my team: a couple of Italians and a couple of Dutch people, around 45-50 years old, and a group of 4 Israelian around 20’s. We started crossing a river, the water was above our knees and the speed of the river was significant, so we needed help from the guides to reach the other riverside.

Then we started walking into the jungle and climbing, it was hot and sometimes it was difficult to breath, as if the air couldn’t go into the jungle. We were walking for aprox. 3 hours, then we stopped for lunch and we had lunch in a small roof of dry plants. The guides put a couple of banana leaves in a table of wood and they put some steamed rice, tomato, meat, bamboo roots and vegetables. We started eating with our hands. At the beginning was strange for all of us but inmediately we got used to that, and enjoyed the meal as everything was good and we were very hungry.

After a small siesta we went on and started climbing again, this time through bamboo forest and going up a small river. It was really nice the view of the jungle and the differents kinds of plants but it was really tiring and hot. But soon the rain came and I was really happy as it was fresh. In fact at the beginning we didn’t feel the drops of water as the forest cover us, but later it started to rain stronger, more and more. And the shoes were completely wet and heavies, the ground was very muddy and we started suffering until we reached the village.

We spent the evening there, trying to recover from the consequences of the trekking ;-), enjoying the lanscape and the games of the children. There were a lot of children in that place, most of them a little bit dirty and thin, but very cute.

One family made the dinner for us, we tried Lao Lao (rise whisky produced in Laos) and after some laughts we went to sleep arround 20:30 h. There was no light so there was no much to do. The big bed can be apreciatte in the pictures. My place is the one with the mosquito net in pink (and with holes) between Erika and Henk and Paola and Pepe. We had a lot of fun with all the situation, they are very nice and friendly.  Israelian group were also nice and happy people.

The next day we decided not to go intgo the jungle, my leg was weak and most of us were afraid of our future if we went deeper into the jungle ;-)

 In the evening we went together to the night market and had some laughs reviewing the trekking. It was at the same time a hard and a funny experience, and we enjoyed as much as possible during and after it.

bye bye luang nam tha, see you my trekking friends!!

    Con permiso comento en español.
    Chica, estás a medio camino entre una misionera y Jesús Calleja, por medio de la selva! La foto donde se ve lo frondoso que era es impresionante, qué valor.

    Vaya mala pata lo de la pierna (valga la redundancia), imagino que se te habrá cargado, tantas horas por la selva es normal, y que no debe ser un camino recto y liso, seguro. Pero todo es cuestión de tiempo para que se te acostumbre el cuerpo. Piensa en lo de ir a trabajar en bici cuando vuelvas que quieras o no coges fuerza en las piernas :-)

    I wish to show some appreciation to you just for rescuing me from such a incident. Just after exploring through the the web and seeing techniques which are not beneficial, I figured my entire life was done. Living without the presence of strategies to the difficulties you have resolved as a result of your entire article is a critical case, as well as ones which might have negatively affected my entire career if I had not encountered your blog post. That training and kindness in maneuvering all things was precious. I don't know what I would have done if I had not come upon such a step like this. It's possible to now look ahead to my future. Thanks for your time very much for the skilled and result oriented guide. I won't think twice to recommend your web site to any individual who should get assistance on this topic.

    If you dread going to work every day or have ever wanted to do the kind of work that made you feel good about what you do then this article is for you. Working in a career that helps others is the difference between looking forward to your job and forcing yourself to go to work each day.

    If someone does a search using Google and they visit a site (not yours) and you have some content on that site and then they click through and visit your site, this is referred traffic. It is not organic traffic.
