Camera stolen in Ecuador

From now on, I am going to sleep with my bag on my lap! I was travelling on a bus from Otavalo to Quito, in northwestern South America. I was tired, but before going to sleep I carefully placed my bag under my feet with the zippers facing towards the back of the seat. I can only guess that the person in the seat behind me must have opened my bag and stolen my camera while I was sleeping. I did not notice it was missing until I arrived at my hotel in Quito.

How World Nomads helped

Reimbursed for the cost of the camera.

CLAIM PAID AUD $500.00
