Arequipa (Peru)

Hi !

I’m minutes away to leave Arequipa for Cusco and I must say it was quite a nice pleasant stop. From nice visits to specular food, Arequipa has been the tourist heaven I was looking for.

As you can see the city itself is surrounded by beautiful volcanos. It is not the same as Huaraz, but since it is less a mess than Huaraz, I feel a lot more relaxed.

I had to say, the must see is the Monasterio de Santa Catalina (with an official guide). There are a couple of beautiful churches, and the only disappointment was been blocked from entering the cathedral in shorts…

Cusco should be another awesome stop (for two weeks before doing the Inca trek), with the possibility to live there, trying to cook some of these Peruvian meal I’ve been enjoying the past weeks, learning some Spanish and possibly doing some rafting.

Enjoy (or not) and stay tuned !
