Colca Canyon, Puno and Nasca
We´ve had a brilliant, if exhausting, last couple of weeks.
After leaving the jungle and Puerto Maldonado we travelled back to Cusco then onto Puno where we were able to visit Lake Titicaca with the floating islands and an island called Taquile which was lovely (although two island rules were broken; taking photos …
Nazca lines and dune buggy travels.

Prochaine étape Arequipa, seconde ville du pays.
