San Cristobal is a small town on a large mountain, it's full of the strongest little old ladies who carry kgs of fruit on their heads and spend their days making bracelets to sell for a lot less than what they are worth.
Located 12hrs north of the coast, this quaint little maze of cobble stone streets is irresistibly beautiful.
After being cooped up on a bus for far too long we checked into our hostel - The Iguana! Run by backpacking volunteers and kids from all walks of life, we felt like we had found a home away from home. From there we poked around the markets, found the most incredible cheese, wine and tapas bar and relaxed in the crispy air.
Day 2 we went on a boat ride through the canyons and spotted some cheeky monkeys and crocodiles.
For our last day we cruised the town, visited the cathedral de la casas, and journeyed wide eyed through the ghetto to find a sea of colourful fruits, veggies, spices and people!
