| At Machu Picchu |
I’m back from my two week jaunt to South America and I have some good news and some bad news.
First, the bad: we didn’t make it to Bolivia as planned. Time wasn’t in our favour, and laziness was on our side. We couldn’t bear to go through what we’ve heard can be a tricky border crossing from Peru into Bolivia (it can take hours to go through customs), and were uninterested in rushing to tick off another destination. As a result, I will have to wait a little longer before sinking my teeth into Bolivia, at least until I can give it the time and attention it deserves.
The good news, then? Peru was so cool, so geographically and physically diverse, that I didn’t lament not crossing over into Bolivia for one moment.
I can’t WAIT to share my stories and photos with you, when I catch up on work and sleep.
Until such time, here is a sneak peek of our two weeks in Peru:
Is Peru some place you think you’d like to go? If you’ve already been, what was your favourite city or region in the country?
Psst! Don’t forget to “like” me on Facebook if you haven’t already! Your support is much appreciated!

Wow! This brings back some very fresh memories! While I have to say that, for me, the border crossing between Bolivia and Peru was easy as pie, I think it’s best that you saw Peru in more detail and saved Bolivia for another time, rather than rushing them both. They’re both countries that deserve a lot of time and attention. Glad you had fun, and I love the photos!
Thanks! Will be hitting you up for tips when I make it there!
I spent 2 weeks in the Ica Region near Paracas, Peru. There is an amazing hostel called Kokopelli and if you are a guest, they can help you make reservations with a kite surfing school. I love this country and I will be going back in October 2014. You are such an inspiration to me with all of your travels. I’ve only been to 9 different countries but I hope to visit 4 more this year.
Safe travels!
Thanks so much for the tip (and for reading) Annie!
