Where is paradise?
San Jorge de Milpe Lodge in the temperate tropical cloud forest of Ecuador.
The lodge was built of beautiful tropical hard woods is surrounded by one of the most diverse plants and bird on earth.
The food was so tasty and varied , above all the owner , Jorge and his wife were so congenial helpful and full of knowledge of the forest. The bond between them and the jungle is very obvious.
We would love to return and repeat that wonderful experience once again.
