Machu Picchu

Peru

Peru stole my heart.
A humble country with warm, gracious people and gorgeous landscapes.
Though Machu Picchu drew me there, there was so much more I fell in love with.

Some shots of Cusco - a charming city!

Narrow roads - Incan designs that did not plan for the future of cars!

Our delicious lunch at the weaving community - Quinoa soup...followed by a tasting of Quinea Pig!

Before heading on our way, the group was challenged to a game of Soccer at 3500M+!

Lares hot springs - the beginning of our trek!

A local Peruvian passing by Quinoa plants...

The mist at our campsite - with Llamas passing by just outside our tents!

The most gorgeous site I've ever seen - the sun rising between the mountains...

Sweet success at 4600M!
