Arequipa, Colca Canyon & Puno (Lake Titicaca)

Hello, 

While some of you have been jealous during January about the weather in Southamerica, so am I a bit jealous about the weather now in Germany. Peru is very cold during the evenings but I got some Alpaca clothes so I am prepared 💪🏻

After Paracas, we went to Arequipa, a city which has to offer stunning landscapes close to the city. One of these is the Colca Canyon where you can hike for multiple days. We only did a two day hike as we are running out of time but it has been exhausting enough... 

Colca Canyon is incredible so in case you get ones to Peru you should definitely go there.














After an ascent from 2100m to 3275m we finally did it!

After the Colca Canyon we left to lake Titicaca (peruan side) which has been beautiful even though I was told the Bolivian side is even more beautiful (looking forward to that then!).

We are now in Cusco, our last station together before Conny will go back home. 

Hope everyone is enjoying the World Cup
