Exploring the backroads of Peru. Posted by: Jessie Kwak. December 23, 2009. Birthdays and river rafting in Arequipa. Mom’s birthday was December 20th (Sunday), and when we asked her what she’d like to do for her birthday she said river rafting.

There was no one around to see us, anyway. Hugo had us pull out o...

Exploring the backroads of Peru. Posted by: Jessie Kwak. September 28, 2009. We had so much fun, I can’t even remember if it rained. Where do you go when you want to trek Peru? Huaraz. And what do you do when you get there? Why, the Santa Cruz trek, of course: a four-day hike through hyperbole-defying high-altitude terrain. Rob posted a photo essay of the hike. On the photographs page–here’s my word essay. The Santa Cruz trek is one of the most popular ones in Peru, due to its beauty and its accessibilit...

Exploring the backroads of Peru. Posted by: Jessie Kwak. October 9, 2009. Cumbe Mayo, Cajamarca. Yesterday we went to Cumbe Mayo. We elected to go via a private tour rather than a group tour more expensive, but I think a way better experience in the end. We left at 7am sharp, just the two of us and our fantastic guide Antonio. Cajamarca Valley, as seen from the Bellavista viewpoint. Antonio led us past two different sanctuaries whose floors were carved with astronomical charts, constellations, maps. ...

Exploring the backroads of Peru. Posted by: Jessie Kwak. October 19, 2009. Wherein we see the world’s third highest waterfall.

Great if you have only one day to spare, but since Rob and I had all the time in the world, we decided to take our time and stretch the one day tour into five. We have to give props here to the book.
