Quilotoa







This is the town of Quilotoa, Ecuador. It is at 3800 meters above sea level, which keeps it cold the entire day. I came to this small town in the mountains to experience a different culture and to see the beautiful lagoon. Everyone in Quilotoa speaks Quichua, which is not to be confused with the Quechua language in Peru. A little boy informed me of this while I was chatting with him during lunch. They speak Quichua with family and friends and learn Spanish in school.
