Peru - A hiking Paradise

#2024wish Trekking in Peru has always been on top of my list. Being a mountain and nature lover, the Andes are a dream for all of those who love adventure and want to detach from the everyday noice and connect with the peaceful sounds of nature. My husband and I had the privilege of spending one month in Peru, hiking, climbing and sightseeing. The highlight for us was an 8 day trek in the Cordillera Huayhuash. The scenery is truly and literally breathtaking as you find yourself trekking above 3,000m above sea level most of the time, and you can reach 5,200 m on some of the days. Sleeping under a bed of stars and camping in the wild was special. It was worth not having a shower and smelling rotten for 8 days 😂, and would do it all over again! My #2024wish is to visit and hike in China. #Huayhuash #treking #travel #peru #southamerica #lima #Travelperu

Street Art Capital of the World

Valparaiso is a bustling port city and one of our favorites in South America. The big draw is the incredible amount of street art. It’s everywhere! Besides that, you’re right next to the Pacific Ocean, which means you can take a dip or an evening boat ride to take in the city lights. Tips: ☀️ Take a free walking tour from the main square in order to learn more about the history and art all around you. Look for the guides in the striped shirts. ☀️ It’s very hilly, so wear good shoes for walking around. ☀️ Be sure to take the asensores, Valparaiso’s unique public transit system of elevators. #travelinspiration #southamerica #Chile #streetart

Gorgeous trek to Fitzroy 🏔️🌲🥾

When in Patagonia, make sure to add El Chalten and the Laguna de Los Tres hike to your list!

After reaching the summit of the trail, descend on foot back to El Chalten. The trail ends at the edge of town. Tips: 🔹Take a bus to Rio Eléctrico to start the hike. This lets you cover 15 miles of one-way distance, rather than 7.5 each way out-and-back. Tour offices in town can set you up for this shuttle. 🔹There are many streams along this trail. Bring a filter to fill your own water bottles along the way. 🔹The weather is unpredictable. Be prepared for blaring sun, freezing winds, and even rain.

Middle of the World, the Equator

These are photos I took standing on the equator that runs through a village just north of Quito, the capital of Ecuador. It was an amazing experience being in the middle of the world. I never thought the weather can be rather cold when on the equator but since the city is in the middle of the Andes mountains, it makes sense. #ecuador #quito #equator #middleoftheworld #mitaddelmundo #fun #travel #vacation #nomad #holiday #southamerica #andesmountains

The 7th Wonder

Machu Picchu, one of seven New Wonders of the World and undoubtedly Perù's number one tourist attraction. The UNESCO World Heritage site is also very desirable to the new generation of bloggers, podcasters or those just wanting 'that picture,' you know the elevated picture that covers the entire site without anyone photo-bombing or otherwise interfering with the shot. The most famous home of the Inca's meant even more to us than a picture to impress your friends. The 7th Wonder of the world was just that, the last one standing - we had been to all of the rest and after a couple of false starts we were on our way. After a train ride through the Andes that was priceless in itself - followed by an adrenaline filled bus ride on a track not much wider than the bus, we arrived at the entrance. Touching distance, but hold your horses another couple hundred steps on foot, and breathe. All of the superlatives used to describe Machu Picchu are correct. Most of the site is original and untouched since the sixteenth century when it was abandoned until 1911. The walls and terraces gives us a view into the past and into a culture that once thrived. Keen Astromers, Mathematicians and Engineers the Inca's literally built a city of stone in the sky that we can all enjoy five hundred years later. Awesome seems a feeble understatement when used in the same sentence as Machu Picchu, it was simply brilliant. #machupicchu #southamerica #mountains
