Arequipa

Highlights:
- Our room was ready early after a night bus which is always nice!
- Watching sunset from the roof of our hostel, and Josh winning table football (a lowlight for Serena)
- Fantastic free walking tour, which included a viewpoint of the mountains and church, a chocolate tasting, watching ceviche being made and having a taster, trying queso helado (not ice cream made from cheese but named because it looks like cheese slices!), and visiting lots of cool places
- Cooking class at Chira Fusion where we had eaten twice and by chance seen the poster saying about cooking classes. We had so much fun (again just the two of us and the chef) and made causa rellena to start, lomo saltado for main, and pisco sour cocktails
- Watching the sunset over the monastery from a free rooftop

Lowlights:
- Visiting an insane amount of glasses shops and still not finding Serena sunglasses

Food and drinks:
- Eating variations of lomo saltado, one of our favourites!
- Trying Aji de Gallina, which is chicken, potato, egg and olives in a creamy yellow lightly spiced sauce served with rice - delicious
- Hot chocolate and brownie at a rooftop cafe with gorgeous viewsRead more
