Machu Picchu vacation July 30 2014-4

Fue duro pero valio la pena

Si no estás en forma, Salkantay te hará sufrir. El segundo y el cuarto día son los más duros, más de 20 km de subidas y bajadas por terrenos escarpados. Al final del trek tendrás ampollas en los pies, picaduras en varias partes de tu cuerpo y descubrirás músculos que no tenías y que ahora te duelen.
Valió la ... Continue Reading

Salkantay trek

Salkantay trek was awesome. I almost died a few times because it was so bloody cold and I had never experienced such altitude.
