Days 436 – 446: Peru to Bolivia and its incredible cities
Days 397 – 413: Livin’ la vida Lima
Riding into Lima was, quite possibly, our most stressful arrival upon a city on this trip so far. I have ranted about Peruvian drivers being certifiably insane and Lima, being the capital city, seems to be a cesspool of the worst drivers imaginable.

Days 373 – 380: Colombia to Ecuador and a week in Quito

Our first stop was in Ibarra, a charming little town around two hours […]

We spent our last few days in Bogotá with some low-key exploring of the beautiful city and getting spoilt with Colombian hospitality in the form of another delicious lunch, courtesy of our host’s wonderful relatives. On Monday, June 4, we left the capital and headed towards Sachica, our stop for the next two nights. Sachica is […]
