0 and 5000 Meters Above Sea Level

In the North of the South, every landscape that you can imagine can be seen in the land of the Impossible.
Some times i don't know how such phrases come out of mi mind. But yeah, if you look in a map in the North of South America you will find Venezuela, motherland of some of the most impressive creations of nature and an incredibly wide variety of landscapes, I mean, everything from deserts to massive forest, from endless plains to big humid caves, more beaches than we can count and snowy mountains, from creepy swamps to majestic waterfalls and everything that is in between those.
But only a few seems to notice....

Scenario One
In the morning it is fresh and nicely warm, the waves sound makes it so relaxing that you wish to stop time and never have to get out of your hammock, at noon you better cover yourself from the sun or it will burn your skin but then the water gets the perfect temperature and the sea becomes so quiet, allowing you to enjoy the sunset like in no other place. When the night comes the tide rise with the moon, waves hit the rocks and the sea breeze whistle at your ears, the sounds hypnotize anyone who stop to hear them

Scenario Two
Covered in fog, the wind blowing over and between the mountains sounds like is speaking to you, the hot chocolate tastes like made by a god making you warm and cozy while you wait for your turn to get on the longest and tallest cable car in the world. It starts going up from the bottom, the mountain looks imposing reaching beyond the clouds, soon it starts getting colder and and darker due to the fog as you reach the first stop at 2,440 MASL and continue geting closer and closer to the clouds, the second stop is at 3,450 MASL, after this point you are actually ascending through clouds and cant see the people around you, going by the third station at 4050 MASL it gets very cold and harder to breath. But then suddenly the clouds end, and there you are right over the clouds stunned for the amazing beauty you're witnessing, it is freezing bun sun burns, the sky have never been so blue, everything under you is white and the peaks merge from the clouds like mythic creatures right in front of you, it overwhelms all your senses and thoughts, for a while it is no longer cold, nothing bothers you, it es only you and the perfect endless white and blue. A few minutes after, you reach the last station at 4765 MASL and still can't believe we are neighbors of the sea
