Peru: Machu Picchu

Time was running out as we had booked a 4 day trek for Quilor’Riti (this will be a separate post) so we left our car in Lima and flew to Cusco. That was a huge mistake. Cusco is at 3600m and we only had 2.5 days to acclimate before starting our big trek. We had […]

Colombia: Canyoning, Coffee and Cocora

Eastern Colombia and San Gil One of the highlights of Colombia was our trip south from Cartagena towards Bogota. It was a 2 day drive to San Gil and we had to find decent accommodation which was hard as there are just tiny little villages scattered throughout the countryside until Bucaramanga (a large industrial town near […]
