Viva el Peru!

by Srechko - last update: Apr 4, 2004

My trip to Peru included visits to Lima, Cusco, Aguas Calientes and 4-day hike to Macchu Picchu.

We travelled as a group of eleven people and I brought back many beautiful memories.

We had a great time, every single day was special, full of exciting encounters, activities and discoveries. Peru is a country of extreme contrasts, beautiful nature, and rich history. Its people and especially the children charmed me the most. I felt kind of sad for not being able to help more than giving them candies and money.

I also expected an invasion of thieves and pickpocketers, but every minute of every day spent in Peru I felt very safe. Majority of the Peruvians are very honest and friendly. After seeing all the poor neighbourhoods, in Lima especially, one could expect much more crime and trouble.

Cusco is a very charming town and Macchu Picchu Inka trail hike was the experience of my life.

Among 11 of us we will have more that 1000 photos plus several hours of video material and that wasn't enough to mark all the special moments.

Most of the photos on my Peru pages were taken by people from my group.
