Blisters, Sprain, and Tight Cheeks
Coming to Peru was a new adventure for me. New culture, new food, and new sleeping arrangements. But it was well worth the new experience. I was on a five day four night Salkantay trek, almost 22 hours of hiking, along with three hours of horseback riding around the seven snakes. The horse ride was…

Blisters overload
My experience on the Salkantay trek was one to remember for the rest of my life.

Awesome food
Probably one of the most challenging experience of my life! The acclimatization to the high altitude was something difficult to deal with, and I was tested physically mentally and emotionally. Se com and third day\’s stood out as they turned out to be the longest. However, Paul and Jimmy were both excellent when it came…
