Day 10 (7-14): Peru Arequipa (Colca Canyon)

PERU | Wednesday, 14 Jul 2010 | Views [315]

- Thinking it would be freezing at night, I wore the fleece, the windstopper and wrapped myself in the blankets like a mummy. Turned out it was pretty warm, and I woke up during the night to take off my jacket. Sweet! - Woke up at 6 am without an ... Read more >


Day 9 (7-13): Peru Arequipa (Colca Canyon)

PERU | Tuesday, 13 Jul 2010 | Views [235]

- Found out that my alarm clock was not working. Dared not sleep in case I could not wake up for the pick-up. Two other gals (Faye and Teresa) at my hostel were doing the Colca Canyon hike the same morning, but a 2d/1n trek with a different company.... Read more >


Day 8 (7-12): Peru Arequipa

PERU | Monday, 12 Jul 2010 | Views [316]

- It has become a habit that I wake up at 7 or 8 am in the morning. Took a nice hot shower to start the day. (You don´t always have hot showers in Peru, so once you have it, you learn to appreciate it). - Met up with Victoria and Camille at the Cathedral ... Read more >

PERU | Sunday, 11 Jul 2010 | Views [277]

- 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 >


Day 6 (7-10): Peru Nazca

PERU | Saturday, 10 Jul 2010 | Views [291]

- 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 >

- Arrived at Nazca at 10:30 am, and took a cab to the hostel (Walk on Inn). This was one of the hostels recommended by fellow travellers on Lonely Planet Forum and the only hostel which replied to my email. So made a reservation before I left Lima ... Read more >

Day 2 (7-6): Peru Lima (Miraflores)

PERU | Tuesday, 6 Jul 2010 | Views [337]

- After being ripped off yesterday (by paying 40 sols, which is almost 15 USD for a cab), I promised myself this would never happen a second time. Goal of the trip is to walk or take public transportation wherever possible. Saves money, and also the ... Read more >

Day 1 (7-5): SF to Bolivia ... um ... Peru Lima

PERU | Monday, 5 Jul 2010 | Views [400]

- 1st day of trip. Saying I was 'thrilled' was an understatement! Had breakfast with Mark, and Lucy and Vien drove me to the airport (Thanks Lucy and Vien!) - At the (SF) airport, as I stepped into the restroom, a Hispanic cleaning lady hushed-hushed ... Read more >
