So, this past week Tal and I headed to the beach. It was heavenly. We would wake up, go get some fruit from the farmers market for breakfast and veggies for lunch. Head out to the beach around 10 am, and sit there all day until around 4. Go in, shower, go get dinner, walk around the tiny town, watch the sunset, eat ice cream, watch TV, and do the very next thing the same day! here are just a few pics!




A couple weekends ago, we took a bus to Tipon (Inkan ruins about 40 minutes from Cusco) with our house mates and Wendi. We passed our stop in Tipon and got kicked off and had to hitchhike a ride back to Tipon. It was hilarious! In Tipon we had our first experince with Cuy (guinea pig). Honestly, wasn´t that bad, tasted like chicken, but I don´t think I´d order at a resturant. but worth trying in Peru! Here are just a couple pictures from that! I wish I could post more, but it takes quite a while to upload. So you´ll just have to wait until I get home to see more!

Well, since the jungle didn´t work out, Tal and I decided to take a trip to the beach for a week. I mean, I can´t complain. The beach in place of the jungle. Not too shabby. I would still have loved to go to the jungle, but it´s not gonna work out that way unfortunetly. So, tonight at 8pm we are boarding our night bus, arriving the beach tomorrow morning between 8-9am I imagine. Sounds heavenly. Cannot wait. I can basically here the waves calling my name, the sand inbetweeen my toes, and the sun hitting my skin. Not too bad. The place we are going is called Mollendo, Peru. Heard it´s gorgeous and nice. Can´t wait to bask in the 80 degree weather all week long!

I´m not in the jungle....

Tal and I woke up at 4:30 yesterday morning, bags were packed and we went to wait outside by the gate where the bus would pick us up. We waited for an hour (pretty custom in Peru) and then I finally decided to go call and see where they were. The told us that busses couldn´t go to the jungle because of the road. Landslides and such. So they told us most likely Monday we will go. Which was fine with us, monday isn´t that far away. However, we just talked with the Maximo office and they told us that we wouldn´t be going on Monday. Hopefully next Friday. ugh. We are both bummed, but I mean, it´s not really in our control so no need to waste our energy to be mad. We were both just SO ready to go! So, I am in Cusco for another week before I go to the jungle! Which isn´t a bad thing either, I really do love this place! I guess my ¨Tarzan¨ will just have to wait.

well, I am going to the jungle for 2 weeks. I honestly don´t know what it is going to entail, but I´m excited. I will definitely post some pictures when I return!

off to find my Tarzan....

love to you all!
