Arriving in the inca city cusco!

I really did not excepted, that I can travel to peru.. it works!!
After arriving at 7:00 in Cusco (driving 2h more to drive around one street blockade) I bought a SIM card and changed money. The Italians (Simon and his girlfriend) found a atm to withdrawal, because on my side 3 didn’t work.

After check in I bought a tour for tomorrow to the Siete coloures mountain(5100m), where I felt scammed because of street offers and I didn’t find a good solution. But at the end it was good.

Also I got a recommendation at the hostel the BCP Bank (700 sol, as much as u want) to withdraw instead of the (banco de Nacional, 400, one time a day). No fees.

I also went to a free walking tour.

After the walking tour I went up to the Jesus statue, where Inca ruins were on the way. I jumped over a fence, to not pay the entrance fee😂

the landscape and view of Cusco was amazing. Again a lot of hills and I already felt in love with the older buildings in the city. Also the view with the mountains…😍 it felt kinda magical, when I was up there.

After going down I went a nice steak restaurant and chilled at the hostel in the evening, because I need to wake up at 3:45 to get picked up at 4:00.Read more
