I never thought I’d end up in Cuenca, Ecuador - not for a lack of wanting to go, it had just never hit my radar. However, when your best friend decides to have her wedding in Cuenca - Ill be there, bells, whistles & all!

A little information about Cuenca. Cuenca is the largest city and capital of the providence Azuay. Cuecna is a very walkale town and as a New Yorker, you can easily cover most of the city by foot.

The food scene in Cuenca was very good, filled with delicious Ecuadorian food and even found some amazing sushi on one of the many rooftops with amazing view of the big church in the city center!

While I was in Cuenca, I went to a hot spring spa at Piedra de Agua, tried some cuy (guinea pig) and of course had a lot what Cuenca is known for DULCE, CANDY!!!
