- Woke up at 7:30 am again and had a nice hot shower. Two things I really liked about the hostel were (1) When they said they have hot water, they meant it. One thing to keep in mind though is that there is a certain daily quota of hot water in each ... Read more >

- It was a chilly chilly night. The bungalows looked amazing, but winds were seeping through the huge gaps between the bamboo stickes, plus the door doesn´t really close. Again I got up at 4:30 am. I guess I just have this biological clock instilled ... Read more >

- Arrived at Arequipa at 7:30 am and checked into Posada del Parque Hostel. Posada del Parque was recommended by Walk On Inn, so I did not bother to do any research. They let me check in right away, and they have internet access, which were huge bonuses.... Read more >

- Another early morning. Woke up at 8 am and after much back and forth, I decided against the Nazca flight. As cool as it is, USD 70 for a 30-minute helicopter flight is just too expensive, even for the world-famous Nazca Lines. Same deal for Victoria ... Read more >
