el regalo del cacto san pedro y templo de la luna donde nací de nuevo (viernes, 17 septiembre)

This morning I woke up at 8:30 to go on a spiritual journey up in the mountains where you drink the juice of the magical San Pedro cactus. It´s really hard to describe but I´ll try anyway. I didn´t know much about it at all, but I read a little bit and found out it´s a plant used for spiritual...

el valle sagrado, machu picchu, y viento (jueves, 16 septiembre)

Yesterday I woke up early to go on my tour of the Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu. I was feeling a lot better at that point and was determined to not miss out on something I´d been planning and looking forward to for such a long time. The Sacred Valley was beautiful. I went with a small tour...

four worlds and enjoying the present moment (martes, 14 septiembre)

It has definitely been an interesting experience in Cusco so far. The day I arrived in Cusco I wasn´t feeling great. My stomach was bothering me, and the person I had been travelling with turned out not to be the person I thought he was, so that was a bit frustrating and uncomfortable. I´ve...

cruz del cóndor y mucho tiempo en el bus (lunes, 13 septiembre)

This morning I woke up insanely early just as the rays of sun were beginning to filter through the windows. The bus was supposed to leave at 6:30 for Cruz del Cóndor, but when I went to turn in the keys at the hostel´s front desk, the lady working there informed me that the bus wasn´t coming...

aguas termales, caminando en el cañón, y pachamama (domingo, 12 septiembre)

This morning I woke up early with the plans of going for a run. However, I´d barely gotten down the street before my nose started bleeding, so I had to head back to the hostel. I wasn´t happy about that, especially since the altitude wasn´t affecting anything else. I was breathing fine, nothing...

la ciudad blanca (sabado, 11 septiembre)

Yesterday morning I crossed the border into Tacna, Perú. I had to take a colectivo from Arica to Tacna, and the guy at the border gave me a slightly difficult time before stamping my passport and allowing me to enter Perú. At first it didn´t seem much different than Chile. Tacna was just a dusty...

The End - Lima

Well - the trip is coming to an end. I hopped a flight from a tiny little airport outside of Puno to Lima this morning, checked my luggage into a locker at the airport, and took a taxi into the center of Lima for a day of walking around and snapping photos. Lima is a hectic, loud, and crazy...

Puno and Lake Titicaca

We had a great meal last night in Arequipa and a few Pisco Sours, and woke up early this morning to catch a bus to Puno - which is a city by lake Titicaca. Joe left Martin and me for the U.S., and we arrived at the crazy bus terminal around 7:30am. The bus ride was interesting and included...

Colca Canyon

It's big. The deepest canyon in the world (arguably it's neighbor a few Miles away is bigger). Due to our limited time, we decided to take a bus tour of the canyon instead of a trek on foot. This proved to be a mistake, but there was little we could do about it. We spent the majority of our...
