First of all I have to talk about a cup of coffee I had moments ago that for some reason was one of the most pleasurable, deeply satisfying coffee experiences I´ll ever have. And it wasn´t even real coffee, it was instant Nescafe, which is more like a bitter, coffee-inspired tea. I´m sorry I´ll never truly be able to convey my satisfaction to you all.

I´m in a first-growth jungle town called Mindo. It´s got butterflies that hatch in the morning and elusive dancing birds you have to wake up at 4:30 to see. I didn´t make it for the the bird, but for some reason the town is provoking nostalgia for towns I know in the Midwest, even though they´re nothing alike. But I´m enjoying myself a lot here. The bus ride here was awe-inspiring. It was misty and getting dark and we were basically driving through a mountainous Congo, a place where gorillas horde diamonds that people want to do something with satellites. Just like that. And then I got laid, which means more than normal because it´s been four months. On the bus I had a thought that I probably won´t have any sex in Ecuador, and like always happens to me when I make any predictions like that the opposite happened within a day. I don´t know what it is, but sex and affection is significantly more important to me now that it was a couple years ago.
