A wonderful adventure on weekend!

A couple of year ago my husband and me decided to go an adventure trip. We were on vacation in Puyo, We meet foreign people, they had practiced rafting before.

When we arrived near a river I felt very nervous however I wanted to try rafting. Our instructor told us some instructions and inmediatly we entered the river.

I had never practiced extreme sport, but I loved it!! I practiced rafting, canoying and canopy the same day. I’ll never forget that experience.
