I´m on antibiotics and anti-inflammatories because of a throat infection, but otherwise, having a ball in Arequipa. It´s the second largest city in Peru, but it´s lovely. Quaint colonial buildings everywhere, and only got harrased by tourist touts ... Read more >

Indeed, it´s alive, and dangerous. Last 3 days rafting was very very fun. First day we had a 4 hour bus drive, then lunch (very nice), then 2 hours on rapids class II and III practising the commands etc. My team consisted of Inna (girl I met while ... Read more >

Guinea Pig! And it's delicious.

He pulled out a knife...

It was early in the morning and my wife and I were walking around the centre of Nazca. Two men who looked to be in their early twenties approached us; they were trying to tell us something but we couldn't understand them. Suddenly one of the men snatched ... Read more >

White water rafting - it´s fully sic!

Wed, 7 May 2008 | By luchinko | Views [726]

Love it love it love it. Went on a 1 day rafting tour of Urubamba river, with class 2 and 3 rapids. It wasn´t very crazy at all, but lots of fun. Tomorrow I go on 3 days rafting tour with class 3, 4 and 5 rapids - that´s when the raft goes vertical.... Read more >

Machu Picchu and other ruins

Tue, 6 May 2008 | By luchinko | Views [1006]

Ruins are good, for a little bit, but after a while, they´re not so good. They all start to look a like. Rightly so because all the ruins I´ve seen were built by the Inca. As magnificent as they are, they´re pretty similar to each other, and when compared ... Read more >

Let no-one question my stupidity

Sun, 4 May 2008 | By luchinko | Views [858]

I´m on my way to Machu Pichu, yay! I decided to scorn the organised tours and DIY it. Cool idea, except I got stuck in the middle of the mountain, hanging onto thorny branches, with no idea how to get out. This morning I left Cusco with an overnight ... Read more >

Ahora, en Cusco.

Fri, 2 May 2008 | By luchinko | Views [711]

Aqui en Cusco, todo esta tranquilo. I can understand why people get stuck here. It is a beautiful city, very atmospheric, lots of old buildings, little cobbled streets, markets, stalls, food, massage, music, everything a traveller may desire. I shall ... Read more >

The Great Lake Titicaca

Thu, 1 May 2008 | By luchinko | Views [591]

A little underwhelmed by the Bolivian side of things, but pleasantly surprised by Peru. Day 1, bussed to Copacabana from La Paz, a boring 3 hour journey, at the end of which was a sleepy little town by the end of the lake. Got on a boat pretty quick ... Read more >

Laura writes: This one year trip around the world has given us the opportunity to see the world from different perspectives. It has also taught me what is really important in our lives and what is not, what is worthwhile focusing on. It ... Read more >
