Alright, so it's been a bit since my last update, so here's a rundown of last 3 weeks...
So after doing some surfing in some really cold water, I made my way to the Sierra. I stayed in this great hostel in this awesome mountain city. I did do a hike which was rated 'easy', but I sadly didn't find it that easy. it was a good experience nonetheless...i realized that i'm really not in good enough shape to do the Inca Trail trek. So I'm not gonna do it...well for many reasons: it's really expensive, I don't have the proper gear, it's the rainy season so it means I would have to walk in the rain and mud, and finally...I'm not in shape! It's not an easy trek! lol But ya, I will come back in the future when i'm rich and fit! haha With the money I'm saving by not doing the trek, I can see and do so much more stuff! So it works out! oh and I will be going to Machu Picchu anyways...I'll just take the train!
Then I went to Lima, the capital city of Peru! Ahhh I fell in love with this city, especially the super cool area of Miraflores! I was so happy to finally have McDonalds and Starbucks after months of withdrawl! haha Lima is such a great city, I ended up spending a week there...checking out the sights, going to the beach, and of course, partying it up in the clubs!
Oh and I've been travelling with two awesome american girls; they are definitely the coolest americans i've met so far! lol But we sadly said goodbye last week as I continued south on my own.
So i went to Huacachina, a small oasis town in the desert! I had an amazing time sandboarding and dune-buggying! Ahhh it was sooo amazing to go down these huge sand dunes! I went down most of the time on my stomach (which is way faster), instead of on my feet because sooo many people seriously injure themselves. Ya one aussie guy in my hostal ended up breaking his arm and needed to fly to Miami for surgery...ya that definitely scared the crap out of me. So everyone in my group played it safe! haha
Oh and I sadly experienced one of my worst nights sleep in a hostal...I was woken up in the middle of the night to two dirty aussies 'doing it' in our 10 bed dorm room! It was disgusting, but quite funny because everyone woke up and started laughing at them. They thought they were being quiet..but they definitely weren't! lol
Then I made my way to Nasca, where I currently am! I took a plane this morning over the Nasca lines (google them!) and it was amazing! The plane ride made me kinda sick, but I'm feeling much better than the english pommy sitting behind me in the plane who vomited the whole trip. ya, poor guy.
So im just killing sometime...im taking the night bus to Cusco tonight!
I'm soooo excited! Cusco's suppose to be an amazing city! It's gonna be great!
Alright, take care guys!!!
Ciao
