Kuelap & Gocta
Dear friends, Going forther up north in Peru, Chachapoyas was one of our first determined destinations when planning our trip. Chachapoyas is one of the entries to the peruvian Amazon and indeed you can tell as soon as you get out the bus. It’s very wet (raining when we arrived) and very green. Chachapoyas was…
Peruvian Coast – Trujillo and Huanchaco
After many hikes at high altitude, many times freezing my hands while taking landscape pictures – we finally arrived in warmer regions: The nothern coast of Peru. We made our way to Trujillo by bus from Lima (Linea, 8hrs) during the day, so we arrived just after nightfall. The Plaza de Armas of Trujillo is…
Rushing Huaraz
I can read your first thoughts reading the titel. Why would we be in a rush when we have 6 months in South America. The reason for this is that we found a cheap ticket to Galapagos from Guayaquil(Ecuador) for like 200 euros cheaper than the average price. The flight was unfortunately a week earlier…
Lima Again
After a 23 hour bus ride from Cusco we arrived back in Lima to spend two days before heading to the north of Peru and heading towards Ecuador. During this stopover we chilled alot without purpose. We stayed again at the Pariwana hostel which was still as good as the first time. We walked through…

Cusco, once the center of the Inca empire, now the starting point for tourists to reach Machu Picchu. I will make this blog post more structured, to find info….
Colca Canyon
Dear friends, It’s time to write about our trip into the Colca Canyon. I tell you, it was hard work, but it was more than worth it and I think it was the nicest thing we did so far. But let’s start at the beginning. The Colca Canyon was this one thing everyone talked about…
White City Arequipa
Chicos, It’s time for my second post! Are you exited already? I’m writing again from a bus…How come? This time we are heading towards Cabanaconde, spotting alot of wild alpacas on the way. From here we will hike around the Colca Canyon. More about this in the future. But first about Arequipa, the town we…
Huacachina, you’ve been good to us
Hello again! This time I am writing to you from a roof terrace in Huacachina, eating an oreo sundae with the perfect view on the high dunes surrounding us. We arrived here 2 days ago, with a direct tourbus from our hostel in Paracas and fell instantly in love with this place here. Huacachina is…
