Today we start the third day of the Inca Trail and after yesterday it can only get easier - a rest day. Before breakfast we see the Pumasillo mountain illuminated by the morning...
Climbing to Warmiwañuska
Finally, the Inca Trail begins! As many of you probably know, I booked this event back in October 2022. I know, it was a bit excessive, but you don't need to tell me that. Since...
I woke up in Cusco and there are still a few little things to do today. But I am stopped in my hotel room, which unfortunately cannot be opened from the inside. Luckily my room...
Because of my rebooked trip, I have until this afternoon to explore Arequipa. Since I still feel very weak and my circulation is not yet back to full speed, I take it very...
After the short night, we still have to carry on, even if every movement hurts and is difficult - staying here is not an option. So I drag myself with Michelle to the main...
Woke up on the night bus, the clock says 4:30 a.m., it's pitch black outside. We were supposed to arrive in Arequipa at 5 a.m., but a truck overturned on the main road, causing...
Whenever I had a single room in a hotel, I used the time (and especially the space) to unpack my entire backpack and cancel it again. Every time I ask myself how it ever fit in...
After yesterday's evening ended late again, this morning I grabbed a spot by the pool and then lay down in the hammock to read. After breakfast and a short walk, the world looks...
Good thing I was in bed early yesterday, because today I have a lot on the agenda again! I start with a coffee and a juice and set off for the boat trip from the port of Paracas...
After being honked at by around 30 taxis while waiting for the bus in the morning, I arrived safely in Paracas! After sitting on the bus for 3 hours, I moved into my 12-bed room...

The next morning starts relaxed again - after all, we want to take the relaxation of the spa evening with us into the next day. After a meager breakfast in the hotel, we head...
In the morning we arrive in Trujillo - a rather unremarkable city at first glance. I drop off my laundry at reception and then we have a few minutes in our rooms before we meet...
There's always the morning after the party, but where better to spend it than on the beach? After not getting enough sleep, I drag myself out of the hotel with Alina. On the way...
Today was probably one of the best days ever! Not just of the trip, but one of the highlights of my life - but I don't know that in the morning. It's Sophie's 22nd birthday and...
In Máncora at 5 a.m. we are all woken up and get off the bus. It is still dark, but the way to the hotel is not far. In terms of hygiene standards, I have had much better...
Today is a classic city trip, as I know it: get up early and explore the city on foot. The three of us start with an Americano "para llevar" and make our way into the city. We...
Today was very quiet! After last night and not getting enough sleep, we were looking forward to breakfast and after checking out of the hotel we were taken by bus to the...
Today is the day to check a few things off your bucket list. First stop: canyoning! Put on your bikini, pack water and a towel and you're ready. In the office we get wetsuits,...
After a night, we leave Shandia again and take a public bus towards Baños. Since the bridge to cross the Rio Napo is closed, we get off the bus shortly after to walk across the...
The idea of the jungle noises has already taken root. On our second night it rained heavily until the morning and I started the day well rested. Even though we have to get up...
I can't remember the last time I slept so well and immediately decide to put a music box with jungle sounds on my wish list. The four of us meet down in the camp, equipped with...
G Adventures Time! Breakfast at 7:30 a.m., departure at 8 a.m. "sharp". When loading the bus, I am very proud to note that I have one of the least luggage; so either I was...
The last day in Quito and therefore still many things to discover! Of course, my day starts before breakfast at the hostel, so I take my last German protein bar and make my way...
