    ¡Adios Peru!

    April 15, 2018 in Peru ⋅ ⛅ 15 °C

    On the bus on the way to La Paz. Need to go to the Peruvian border at Desaguadero first.
    Final thoughts of Peru?
    - Sun is really strong here!
    - Love how all the women dress in traditional or authentic clothing - black skirts and a colourful cloth wrapped around their shoulders, carrying goods and sometimes children!
    - They love their pollo and papa fritas!
    - I love Alpaca meat (and makes me feel a bit guilty, but apparently they kill them at around 12 yrs of age for their meat)
    - So far the group has been gelling well (except for Astrid who is difficult....)
    - People here are kind
    - Glad Im able to practice my Spanish. Helped yesterday in particular when we were at Uros island and the lady was showing us the room where her family sleeps.
    - Hotels have been basic and hot water is a blessing!
    - Loved Machu Picchu in the afternoon when it was raining plus the rainbow and not many people!

    Adios Peru - Bolivia here I come!
