Reminded me a little of some of the views.

This was taken at the little bus station in Vilcabamba, which is somewhat famous for its allegedly very long-living residents. Some doubt arises regarding the veracity of this claim, since apparently people who claim to be 100 are inclined to claim 110 a year or two later... Nevertheless, there is no shortage of well-heeled gringos coming to live here, building flash houses with all the mod cons and spending their days sitting about drinking coffee and hoping for a longer life. Despite that, it's a pleasant little town. The hour on the bus from Loja has spectacular views, so worth coming for a day of gringo watching just for the trip alone.
