Venezuela 2007 Galleries

Merida : Venezuela is a land of sea and mountains. The village of Merida where the marriage was being held is just in the middle of the Andes mountain range of the country. From here you can take a cable car to the top of the mountains. Most of the pictures where taken from the top of the cable car, and the rest where taken on the trip from Merida to Los Llanos.

Los Llanos : Los llanos is a paradise for wildlife and birdlife. We came here to spend our last 4 days of our trip to Venezuela to enjoy what's probably the best wildlife spot in the whole country. We where there in the dry season which is the best season to see the animals there because they all come closer to the water which is getting scarcer and scarcer.

Wedding : Catherine's wedding was the excuse I visited Venezuela, not that I needed one but it just tipped the balance in favour of this wonderful country. Catherine married Riccardo, the handsome Venezuelan guy in the pictures.

Corrida (Bull fight) : I'm an animal lover, but being in Venezuela in Carnival I thought it was foolish to miss a corrida. This was a once of experience, it's nice to experience it for a while but now that I've watched it I think it's quite cruel and unfair to the bull. Before the torrero starts fighting with the bull the bull is already heavily injured by the person on the horse inserting a spear in it's neck thus making the bull a much easier target. I don't regret going but wouldn't go again.

Orinoco Delta People : This is a collection of portraits of the Warao people living in the Orinoco Delta. These are some of the most authentic indigenous people I've ever visited in my travels. This place is full of children and I must say that the children here were one of the highlights of the trip. The large number of children is due to the large families and high mortality rate of the children especially the males who can be afflicted by a deadly disease.

Canaima Village : The main highlight of Canaima village is the scenic Canaima lagoon. The people, dirt roads and huts give this place a very distinct character not easily found elsewhere.

Canaima - Angel Falls : Angel falls are the highest waterfalls in the world. Unfortunately in the dry season there isn't much water flowing through them and the only option to visit them is by plane, and what a plane.

Ciudad Bolivar : Ciudad Bolivar was the stepping stone to the tours for Canaima and the Orinoco Delta. The capital of the Bolivar state was the poorest urban village I visited during the holiday.
