The Longevity Story
Hotel owner here scoffs. Yeah, they USED to have people 130 years old. Nowadays, no one is older than 100. Pollution, Television, video games, drugs, etc.
Very odd place.
A tiny valley lost near the SE Ecuador border. 5000 locals. 3000
gringos mostly in the hills around. Trying to get a handle on it,
what's the attraction, the "meaning"...? So far, it makes no sense.
I like the Ecuadorians very much. Can't necessarily say the same for
the gringos.
Well it is a foil to Cuenca 4 hours from where I rode yesterday. A
cosmopolitan gringo retiree mecca, Eternal Spring, many after cheap,
good health care. Costa Rica XVIII.
