O segundo dia foi desafiante pelo fato de ... Continue Reading →

My bucket list hike
The trail I took followed the traditional Inca Trail. It led me through a beautiful Urubamba River and a number of archaeological sites. The experience is unique. It is not only the views are breathtaking, but also the scale.
Another dimension of the hike is the high elevation of the trail. It goes from under 3,000 km up to ... Continue Reading →
