I was standing there for 3 hours just watching eruptions and taking long exposure pictures of Volcan de Fuego just 1,5 km away. Watching this live accompanied by the explosion sound and then hearing the hot rocks tumbling down the slope for a minute after the eruption is magical.
The same evening we went much closer at about 500m of distance. Wouldn’t go to sleep if not for the cold. Without exaggeration, this is one of my most memorable experiences to date. The rumor is that in few years it will be too dangerous and you won’t be able to see it that close. You decide what to do with this info ;)
