Saved by the Candy

Great experience trekking for the first time in Peru. Great guide, great cook and horseman. Cold, altitude sickness and bad stomach after the first night leaving me crawling up to the highest point, but was saved by a sugar boost from some candy, was definitely worth it and would do it again. Rest of the trek at lower altitude was much easier for me. Lots of interesting people met along the way and good to get a good feel for life in Peru outside of the big citéis. Would recommend exploring Peru's beautiful country side to anyone visiting South America.
