- Week Eleven One of the best parts of my week is the ride home from computer classes in Chillca. Chillca is such a small, rural community that it doesn’t have its own Combi station. Thus, I have to hitchhike back to Ollantaytambo Posted by ktconroy1604 in Gap Year | Nov 8, 2011
- Lima Take Two3 weeks after we started our tour of Peru and we found ourselves back in Lima. It was sad saying goodbye to everyone once again, a common theme throughout my trip. Just when you feel you have made Posted by slking in South American Adventure | Nov 7, 2011
- Puerto MaldonadoHeading into the rainforest for a well earned rest, we hit the Amazon forest 34 miles west of Bolivia on the confluence of the Ambopata and Madre de Dios River. As you stepped off the air-conditioned plane and the Posted by slking in South American Adventure | Nov 7, 2011
- CuscoTired and achey we made our way back to Cusco via the windy roads and train, listening to pan pipe music on repeat. After the 2 hour journey we couldn't wait to get off! We arrived in the Posted by slking in South American Adventure | Nov 6, 2011
- The Inca TrailLeaving the hotel at 5.30 we drove towards the starting point on the Inca Trail trying not to think too much about the mammoth task ahead of us. We stopped over in Ollantayambo to have some breakfast and gather Posted by slking in South American Adventure | Nov 6, 2011
- Sunday 6th November CuscoWell we´re now in Cusco. We arrived yesterday and I´m delighted to say that I made it without getting sick!

- LimaThis place rocks... it is a fusion of spanish, chinese, japaneses, portugese and any other cuisine you want to add in. There have been some unreal combinations on our plates from lomo saltado (beef with soy sauce on a bed Posted by astroalex in Follow the Sun | Nov 5, 2011
- LimaMade it to Lima, although poor old mum had a bad bout of travel sickness, starting on the plane from London Heathrow to Madrid, and continuing throughout the 12 hour flight to Lima.

- So you got to let me know...I am happy! My bed is too hard. The work here is backbreaking. I have too big an appetite for the servings here. People shout in the yard until 12 o'clock; at 6 the light through the window wakes me up. Posted by b.d.reinink in Inspiración | Nov 3, 2011
- Wayna PicchuThere are 3 alternatives to go to Machu Picchu from Cuzco. One of them is travel by train that costs USD 140 for round trip. Second one is choosing suitable travel agent which you need to pay more than USD Posted by La Turca in La Turca en Sudamerica | Nov 3, 2011
- Puno and the HomestayAfter a long 7 hour bus journey, we arrived in Puno. The city itself doesn't have a lot going for it, but Puno is the gateway to Lake Titicaca and the main reason why people visit this city. Posted by slking in South American Adventure | Nov 2, 2011

- Week TenI never thought I’d say it – or write it – but Ollantaytambo was a total mad house this last week. The town celebrated its 137th anniversary this weekend and people of all ages put life on hold for five Posted by ktconroy1604 in Gap Year | Nov 1, 2011

- Peru – Ica & HuacachinaNote author change: Tanya! Travelling had been intense for the past few weeks (only one sleep-in in 3 weeks) so Huacachina was the place for us to come for a well earned break. I know we won´t get getting much sympathy Posted by dbgomes in There and Back... And There Again | Oct 29, 2011
- Shaken, not stirred!Might have seen on the news: Big earthquake, 6.9 on the scale of Richter, off the coast of Peru. Guess where I am? First thought: How the hell did I suddenly get so drunk that I can't stand on my feet? Second Posted by b.d.reinink in Inspiración | Oct 28, 2011
- Making the world a better place – by destroying stuff8 hours of destroying adobe (brick) houses. Some local NGO used home made bricks that fall apart after half a year. Good choice. Too tired to write much though, let the pictures speak for themselves. And sorry for the photos Posted by b.d.reinink in Inspiración | Oct 26, 2011
