Such a lot of world to see.

The Lares Trek

For me, the three days spent on the Lares trek best displayed Peru in its purest, most pristine form.  Sweeping Andean landscapes with an otherworldly beauty. The Quechua people living the same way they have for hundreds, maybe thousands of years.  The influence of Spanish colonization, or any foreign societies for that matter, is extremely minimal. This was my experience with the Andean culture in the raw.

Alia and I hired a local group to help us foreigners on our way to 3 separate 13,000+ ft passes in one of the most scenic parts of the Andes. The photographs  will tell the rest of the story. Click the link.
