My trek

My trek on the Salkantay trail was amazing. It was probably the hardest thing I've ever done, and I'm so glad to have done it. It was definitely more work than I was expecting from the online description, but our guide Lisandro was so helpful the whole time.

Bring plenty of extra plastic bags, plenty of sun screen and a good hat. Bring extra bags for carrying your essentials. Prepare in advance for altitude sickness if you don't want to be miserable. Ask lots of questions to your travel guides at Salkantay.org - they can answer your questions.

This country is more beautiful than I imagined and the experience was absolutely spiritual as we hiked through God's creation. Bring extra batteries for your camera ;)
