Day 200,
Quepos, Costa Rica

Today I did a Vanilla & spice tour at Rain Forest Spice. A 30 minute drive into the jungle is where this farm grows among many plants and herbs, including Vanilla, cinammon, peppercorns, allspice, turmeric, hibiscus, basil, and cacao. I learnt why the fake artifical vanilla is so popular and why the real vanilla beans are so expensive!

Day 195, 10 countries
Ometepe Island, Nicuragua

#4 Book read on this trip. I have a new personal best, i read this book in just over two weeks! Awesome book. Im not much of a book reviewer but it is a unbelievable and inspiring true story about a family their mission to heal their autistic son via horses and sharmans. Easy read and very descriptive, makes you feel right there with them.

Finca Madgelana, Balgues, Ometepe, Nicuragua.

A two hour crammed bus ride from Moyogalpa and another 20 min walk, up hill with my bags, I arrived at Finca Magdelana. I have to say, I thought i had seen the most ever people crammed into a bus before, however this ride took the prize. We were in a standard chicken bus and people were standing the door way and all around the driver.
There is always room for one more!
