Steem Women's Club Community Contest #6 | Promote Your Favorite City | Caripe, Monagas - Venezuela

Traveling is one of the pleasures of life, to be able to travel other roads that will take us to places full of adventures, to have the chance to taste different flavors, breathe new aromas, and have our eyes filled with different landscapes. Sharing with new people while making memories that will stay with us for a lifetime. Traveling is so much fun that even the bad experiences we may have in the end become a joke or a lesson learned. By traveling we always gain wisdom.

Whether it is national or international tourism, the pleasure of traveling is unique and incomparable. Our suitcase is not only filled with clothes but also with many desires. When I saw this contest of the Steem Women's Club community I thought of talking about a town in my country called Caripe and highlighting a beautiful site that we can visit there which is the Cueva del Guácharo and beyond wanting to make this post a kind of Wikipedia page what I pursue is to talk about the sensations that made me love being in this magical place.

I have traveled to Caripe several times, but the truth is that I only have photos of one trip, which I share with you today, it often happens to me that I concentrate on enjoying and forget to take pictures, it also happens that with the changes of PC and phones I have also lost many photographs. Below I share some photos from a trip I took to Caripe in December 2012. I had a lot of fun!

Visiting Caripe, Monagas- Venezuela

Caripe is a town located in the state of Monagas in Venezuela, a place with a divine climate where you can enjoy delicious hot chocolate, I live in Puerto La Cruz a city where we usually have a very warm climate so going to places with colder climates is always great. The town of Caripe is about 4 hours from the city where I live.

In Caripe there are inns/ hostals where nature is the protagonist, in that opportunity we were four people and shared two rooms, I owe you the name of the inn because I do not remember because I did not make the arrangements for accommodation, what I do remember is that the inn was great with a couple of houses to stay, cable TV service, bathroom, restaurant, and private parking.

In general, all the inns have these services, some have a swimming pool and the alternative of being able to use the kitchen space to make your own food.

Going to Caripe is a whole experience of renewal, the peace you have there, even if you have no phone signal (hahaha), but something even more enchanting that pleases me is having the possibility to visit the Cueva del Guacharo, the truth is that entering the site while the guide is telling the story of the cave and seeing the formations of stalagmites and stalactites to which they have named and have made a story is great.

You can even see the occasional Guacharo, there are so much mystery and magic in these natural spaces that are something I love.
