Wonderful, simple and inviting. Peru!

Peru is a Jewel of Culture

Waiting for me to finish
Don't miss a trip to beautiful Peru! This photo shows the Jewel of Inca culture: Machu Picchu. World heritage site and worth the trip. This should be in everyone's top 10.
I found the culture and people of Peru inspiring. From the mud-brick houses without electricity right up to the Lima elites who are a meld of many countries and cultures... even from within their own country. Set your date and make the trip. You will thank me for it.
Cusco Church

All majors cities have the "Square"

Every major area will have an old church and a square around it. Sometimes there will be multiple squares withing the same area.
Here in Cusco this is the main one but there are 2-3 others.
Smiling boy in Cusco

Bring a smile

I found the locals everywhere to be very nice. I coaxed a grin from this local Cusco boy that would lite a city! These people are hard working and resiliant. Even the poverty I witnessed had a pride to it that made you want to stay and experience a day in their lives.
