The farm i stayed on was a typical cattle ranch on the colombian border and i helped taking care of the cattle when i was there.I felt like i was part of a western movie where i was the lonesome cowboy.Well worth trying for all real men.
When i stayed on the ranch in venezuela i had my own little primitive house that i lived in with a hammock to sleep in.what more can you ask for when you don´t need luxury but just ask for adventure?
In southern venezuela i stayed a couple of days in a little town called Eldorado.I saw no tourists, but lot's of venezuelan guys who worked as gold diggers and lot's of prostitutes trying to get their attention and money.All in all, just like a real spaghetti western movie.
My hiking guide took us up here.Its a good hike to get there, but the payoff is more than worth it. This is a hot spring bathing pool where you can actually control the temperature of the water. There are 3 small streams running down into the pool...one cool, one lukewarm, and one hot. So if you want the water to be hotter, you simply divert the cold stream away from the pool with rocks!...it sounds crazy, but it's real. Watching the sun disappear behind the mountains while soaking in the warm, soothing water is sublime. Bring a towel, bathing suit, and flashlight to find your way back down the mountain in the dark.

Well I had an espectacular view of the City of Caracas. GO to VALLE ARRIBA in the MIRADOR.. to see this. Valle Arriba is the most exclusive place of Caracas. If you go to the mirador... be warned, it will be a SNAPSHOT VIEW. Because the area is exclusive, police patrol the area.. and you may be asked to leave. Do not come to Valle arriba in homeless clothing or a beaten up car! P.S. I went at night... i forgot to put on the flash on my camera, so my pictures did not come out. :(

We left the flatlands of Los Llanos at the point where the Andes begins to sweep up out of the Orinoco Basin and took three days to climb from the swampy plains, through increasingly riotous vegetation, into virgin rainforest. The river that had gurgled merrily alongside the jungle trails began to tumble with increasing ferocity as we dismounted to lead our horses one at a time across a chain of dangerously swaying suspension bridges. We followed a trail that was first blazed by the conquistadors on a steep, slippery climb through cloudforest and, in mid-afternoon, rode out into a region of wide grassy meadows where the Criollo horses broke into a cheerful canter. Then, quite suddenly, we were on the high páramo…and still our caravan snaked upwards towards the eerie moonscape that the Andean people believed to be the domain of spirits.
Controversial cryptozoological case that took place near the Tarra River on the border of Venezuela and Colombia in 1920.Swiss geologist Francois de Loys was this expedition's leader, hence De Loys Ape. According to his story, after an arduous journey and many casualties (several men had died), the remnants of the party set up camp near the Tarra River to rest for a while. They were then suddenly attacked by two 5 ft tall ape-like creatures, a male and a female, that waved branches menacingly at the party, howling and screeching, and finally throwing their own dung at the expedition members. In their defense, the party opened fire, and the female was shot dead. The wounded male then retreated into the forest.Upon inspecting their victim, the men realized that it was something out of the ordinary. They proceeded to sit its body on a crate, propping its head up with a stick, and taking a...
