Coastal Region Travel Guide

Tourist Guide

Paracas is a sleepy little fishing beach town in Peru that is the gateway for the Ballestas islands where we saw penguins, Sea Lions and tons of birds.
A hike totally worth it! Laguna 69 offers the blue-st water ever seen! A 5h round-trip to over 4600m gets you to this beautiful lake where the brave can take a plunge before hiking back again. #WeekendGetaway  #Waterlust
This Peruvian national park is located near the city of Huaraz and is home to the world's highest tropical mountain range also known as Cordillera Blanca of the Andes. 
Please be aware of the altitude since its 3,500 to 6,768m above sea level at the summit of El Huascarán (the highest peak in Peru). 

Spend a few days in Huaraz to get acclimated before attempting this hike and prepare yourself for a spectacular view. #blue #bestof5 #Peru
After a 3 hours walk you get to a flat path. You can't walk anymore because you are tired but every step you take makes a blue point grow bigger and bigger. So you take one more step. The blue in front of you ia worth the pain.
Alone with my guide (the two friends I was travelling with had altitude sickness earlier and had to head back) I hiked up to this beautiful lake, which proved to be awkward at times when you can't speak Spanish.

Head pounding and gasping for every bit of oxygen I could, I think if I'd stayed any longer than lunch I would never have summoned the energy to head back to the van.

Hice la reservación de este hotel, pensando que era el que estaba en el aeropuerto nuevo y resulta que no este está en otro lado así es que no me sirvió para nada. Lo quise cancelar y ni siquiera tuve la gentileza de comunicarse conmigo. Así es que perdí 100% lo que pagué. Tengan mucho cuidado
