Days 436 – 446: Peru to Bolivia and its incredible cities

On Tuesday, October 2, we had a 2-hour ride from the town of Puno to the border crossing for Bolivia. We stopped on the way to take a look at Lake Titicaca, but we didn’t have a good viewpoint and just our cell phones so we didn’t the greatest picture. Boo hoo for us. Lake […]

Days 397 – 413: Livin’ la vida Lima

Riding into Lima was, quite possibly, our most stressful arrival upon a city on this trip so far. I have ranted about Peruvian drivers being certifiably insane and Lima, being the capital city, seems to be a cesspool of the worst drivers imaginable. Not only did it seem like everyone on the road was trying […]

Days 373 – 380: Colombia to Ecuador and a week in Quito

On July 31, we bid farewell to magical Colombia and crossed the border into Ecuador.

Days 311 – 317: Bogota to Villa de Leyva and the Terracotta House

We spent our last few days in Bogotá with some low-key exploring of the beautiful city and getting spoilt with Colombian hospitality in the form of another delicious lunch, courtesy of our host’s wonderful relatives. On Monday, June 4, we left the capital and headed towards Sachica, our stop for the next two nights. Sachica is […]

Day 300: History and shiny things in La Candelaria

For our first Saturday in Bogotá, the plan was to explore La Candelaria, the historic neighbourhood of the city’s downtown area where the country’s capital was founded in 1538. The neighbourhood is very popular with local and foreign tourists due to its colourful colonial architecture, cobblestone streets, and numerous attractions.   Our first stop was Plaza Bolívar, […]
