I'm so excited!  I've been volunteering for The Mountain Fund for a year now, and am finally able to go on one of their treks!  I'll be going to Peru in August!  It will be my first trip outside of the United States!  If you're looking for a travel companion opportunity, this is it!  Trip dates are Aug 9-22, please contact me here if you are interested - serious inquiries only.

We'll fly into Lima, then fly to Cusco and have a day of touring.  Then on to Ollantaytambo where we'll stay for a few days.  From our home-base in Ollantaytambo, we'll go up to Huilloc and conduct our Medical Clinics.  Then when all the work is done, it's back to Paucartambo for the Festival Virgin del Carmen.  (We'll camp in tents this night in Paucartambo, rise before dawn the next day, and drive to viewpoint to watch the sunrise over the cloud forrest!) 

Next we have a few days touring in and around Cusco - Inca sites and the Sacred Valley - and on for a day at Machu Picchu.  After this, we wind our way through Aguas Caliente and back to Cusco & Lima and travel home.

I LOVE photography, so be sure to stay tuned for trip updates, photos and videos!
