Machu Picchu day 2
1 Eylül 2023, Peru ⋅ ☁️ 16 °C
5:30am start... definately the hardest day - 12km pretty much relentlessly up including dead womans pass... got to the highest point on the trail at 4215 ft... and we all made it to camp in good time...
Was wet but I think I preferred that to the sun and heat...
Blisters definately started appearing today - should have bought some better fitted boots!
Have huge respect to our porters who are doing this carrying up to 26kg of weight 😶Okumaya devam et

Machu Picchu day 3
2 Eylül 2023, Peru ⋅ ☁️ 16 °C
5am start... The best day! So much variety in the landscape and trail. The weather was also perfect... not too hot or cold and it was dry! Views were stunning and there were several inca ruins for us to explore.
Loved it, even if the legs are tired and feet are blistered... was epic.
Was also our last meal at camp and the fabulous chefs really pulled out all the stops and baked us a cake! Honestly, how these guys work out of a tent is incredible... there's no kitchen, electricity, fridges or anything but they provided us with pretty much the best Peruvian food I've had the whole time... the porters and chefs really are hero's! ❤️Okumaya devam et

Machu Picchu day 4
3 Eylül 2023, Peru ⋅ ☁️ 14 °C
We made it!!!
3am start to get through the check point at 5:30 and give the porters and chefs time to catch the train...
Through the sungate around 7ish and then into Machu Picchu... it was amazing!
Even if it was very wet and cold, it is understandable why it is one of the 7 wonders of the world... just incredible!
What a sense of achievement, loved every second!
... And check out those blisters I kept mentioning!

On another note, went back to Cusco and we all went on a night out... all of us felt so rough the next day... unsure if it was tiredness, altitude or general hangovers but good time was had by all! 🤗Okumaya devam et

Goodbye Cuzco, hello Lake Titicaca
6 Eylül 2023, Peru ⋅ ☁️ 11 °C
We departed Cuzco to head to Lake Titicaca and Puno... this was time for homestays (staying with a local family and helping out a bit).
We took a boat ride to the area via some floating islands where we saw how people lived on islands made of reeds which was fascinating before heading for lunch and meeting our family...
We arrived and played some football (i am insanely uncoordinated with feet so went in goal hoping to be able to catch anything... i failed a lot!) We all got dressed up in traditional dress and had to dance with our host family before heading to our home for the night... jasmine, Margaret and I had a lovely mama and papa and their son bought his adorable 8 month son to come and say hi... so cute!
Our room was gorgeous and had amazing views over the lake... worth the climb to the top to get there!Okumaya devam et

Homestay and kayaking
7 Eylül 2023, Peru ⋅ ☀️ 13 °C
Time to get to work!
Woke up fairly early, around 6/6:30 to help mama in the kitchen before breakfast... breakfast was so tasty, fried bread with jam and egg... think I put on weight just from that!
Next task was to take the sheep and the llama down to the field... we were given some cool hats to wear as the sun was very strong! I looked after the llama, he was called Carlos 🤣 he was a greedy Carlos!
Once the animals were secure we had to sort through dehydrated potatoes to get rid of all the soil, leaves and straw... dehydrated potatoes are a key part of the diet in peru as they are abundant and Peruvians do not waste any food!
Our jobs were pretty easy and chill in comparison to some of the gang who had to hand plough fields 😬
I opted to go kayaking in the lake with Isaac, Delin, Essy, Harvey and Zack... was a lot of fun, Isaac and I shared a kayak, he is quite risk averse, so was constant 'Anna, you're going to capsize us!' And when Harvey and Zack suggested a race his reaction was 'Don't encourage her!!!' 😂Okumaya devam et

Hello Bolivia / Death Road Biking
9 Eylül 2023, Bolivya ⋅ ⛅ 17 °C
Arrived in Bolivia on the 8th and went for a lot of drinks... hilarity ensued, which may not be appropriate for Find Penguins so won't elaborate!
Anyways, woke up on 9th very hungover but ready for Death Road mountain biking... think the hangover was a good thing as I was unaware of the 900m unprotected drop for a lot of the narrow downhill path!
But as the name suggests, it was pretty epic and adrenaline fuelled and a brilliant way to spend the day... and got some great pics!
Was pretty scary on mountainbikes, no idea how the bus drivers weren't kakking themselves!
The 3 hour bus ride back to the hotel was also fuelled by beer and rum&coke karaoke with some bangers being played by the driver...
Other than the creapy guide offering to help all the females with showering (😶) was a brilliant day!
We are survivors!!! 👊👍💪

Super sadly we had to say goodbye to 4 amazing members of our gang: Nikki, Soph, Isaac and Chino... going to miss them all so much but hope this is just 'catch you later' rather than 'goodbye'.
Also welcomed another 9 members to the tour, looking forward to getting to know them better 😀Okumaya devam et

La Paz
10 Eylül 2023, Bolivya ⋅ ☀️ 18 °C
I have a roomie! New member of the group, Lisa from Italy 😁
Great day exploring La Paz today... I think it's considered the highest city in the world with over 1 million people... so yer, altitude!
A group of us went on a walking tour where we learnt about the prison - very strange, too much info to put on here but is basically run by the prisoners and like a lil village/community!!! - the politics, the Witch market and sacrifices which still happen today, and the local market place... Great tour guide with loads of good stories and enthusiasm for La Paz..
In the afternoon we took a ride on the cable cars... yup the transport planner came out and started thinking about how and where this could be beneficial at home! Was a great way to see the city from above... super cheap and fun!

Hopped on another overnight bus to Sucre... the capital of Bolivia...Okumaya devam et

Sucre day 1
11 Eylül 2023, Bolivya ⋅ ☀️ 26 °C
Arrived in Sucre after night bus... night bus was better than expected with fully reclining seats - like 1st class airplane!
Spent the morning orientating ourselves and spent most the afternoon getting to know the new members of the group in the pub... this obvs lasted a while with changing locations and ended up in the karaoke bar... there was a very odd vibe as it was being live streamed... but a few of us either didn't realise this was happening or lost all inhibitions... as the group dispersed, there was only 4 of us left... and lizzie... an unamused guide/baby sitter 😅Okumaya devam et

Sucre day 2
12 Eylül 2023, Bolivya ⋅ ☀️ 22 °C
Went to the textile museum today which was super interesting... it wasn't just about the textiles, but also about the music and dance and rituals that Bolivians performed... I think my favourite part was where it moved from the female weaving success into men's introduction to textiles saying 'the men were jealous of the success of the female weaving so wanted to start'... their textile was not as intricate or beautiful, in my opinion, as the women's!!!
Went for lunch at a very cute cafe before chilling/recovering in the afternoon.
In the evening went for a gourmet dinner - 8 courses, loved every bite!Okumaya devam et
