So after an extended stay in Arequipa I am heading to Cusco tonight on my lonesome. While I originally decided to skip Cusco all together, the idea of spending 3 more days in Arequipa just doesnt do it for me. That said, I have had a wonderful time here, and cant complain. Not much more to report.

Remember the time I didnt have a parasite...
So it turns out I am not with parasite....however I do have a ¨very strong¨bacteria within me. EECCH. So what does this mean. This means I have not eaten anything but bread in 4 days and will probably not eat much else. This also means that I cant go to Cusco or hike the Inca Trail. Seems as though Arequipa y yo are destined to be good friends. Luckily I know some peeps here so I will be a-ok. I also think I might take this opportunity to take some more spanish classes to work on the ol espaƱol.

Remember the time I got a parasite....
Ya I remember that time....Well its not for sure, I am currently waiting for the test results. Spent yesterday in the hospital and got injected with a pain killer (had one of my needlephobic panic attacks where my peru friends thought I was insane and had to calm me down). While a parasite sucks in general it especially sucks now because my Inca Trail is in 5 days and Nili´s birthday is tomorrow. At this point im thinking I wont make it to Cusco in time for her birthday, as altitude sickness on top of terrible pain does not seem too appealing to me, but maybe I will be there and healthy by the time of my Inca Trail. I already paid 40%, like $140 for the trail, though I suppose paying the other 60% and feeling like death for 4 straight days wouldnt be worth it. At least I have been to Machu Picchu before and will definately be in Peru again. Ah well it's all part of the experience I guess. It just sort of sucks because of all my friends I am the most careful when it comes to food. AHHH!
Ok enough of my complaining, aside from this I have had a really good couple of days. On the 23rd my friends and I were going to go to the Colca Canyon but I woke up feeling to sick to go. Thus, I spent the last 2 days on my own. Although I really missed my girlies, it was really nice. I spent alot of time walking around (only in the day in public well lit areas MOM) and reading my book. Then I went to a cute little sandwich place where I became great friends with the owner. Her name was Paola and for some reason she just loved me. Then I met up with a friend I had made earlier (once again only in public well lit areas). I got to see the wealthy side of Arequipa including a really beautiful country club (who woulda thunk there were country clubs here).
Anyway, thats the update on my life. While I am sick I am still super happy and content. Its all an adventure, fleas, parasites and all....

Nazca Lines and off to Arequipa for Pippas bday
SOOOO much fun these past few days have been.
So to start sandboarding was a blast. Nili and I rented our boards and headed up the gigantic sand dunes. After walking for about an hour we reached the top. From up there we may have well have been in someplace like Egypt. Giant sand dunes surrounded us for as far as we could see. It was beautiful. At that point my dear friend Nili dropped her board which proceeded to fall down the entire dune. Rather than making her walk down the hill again we decided to share my board. First we waxed it for a good 5 minutes making sure it was super slippery. Then I sat on the front half and she sat in the back. We pushed off and started down the hill. After 10 seconds, and with our fat asses, we picked up ridiculous amounts of speed. We were both having a blast screaming our heads off when suddenly the front end of the board got caught in the sand. We both flipped in the air. Nili flipped over my head. When we finally landed we both had sand in every inch of our bodies. My nose, my ears, my mouth completely filled. We laid still for about 20 seconds, and then both burst into laughter. I imagine if anyone saw us it must have been quite a scene. Dont worry mom and dad, I was uninjured and had a blast. I officially love sandboarding.
Next day we left at 7 am to head to Nazca for the day. To make a very long story short we ended up flying over the Nazca lines in a 6 person place. It was really cool, a bit scary, and extremely vomiticious. The Nazca lines are much smaller than we imagined but still an awesome site.
SO then we killed the rest of the day in Nazca eating and being bums. We boarded a bus at 10 pm to head to Arequipa. The bus was the cheapest bus available, 10 hours long, and without a bathroom on board. I realized that these buses are the location of my flea bites. Ew
So here I am in Arequipa. Last night was Pippa's birthday. We made the decision to party like rockstars, drank way too much and were once again the stars of the dance club. The club was awesome, full of waterfalls and cool lighting. Despite a high etrance fee we got in free thanks to our feminine charm. I spent a while dancing with our greek friend who told me I was excellent at greek dancing. Ha. Then I met a Peruvian dude from California, quite a beautiful man I might add (my friends yelled at me for ''taking the hottest guy in the club'') who tried teaching me to salsa. Despite my lack of rythm its really great dancing with guys who can reallllllly dance. SO today we slept until 5 pm and then went to dinner. After this we will head to a juice bar and then maybe see a movie.
My life really is too easy these days. I feel slightly guilty for this but am trying to appreciate every minute.
Miss you all.

Pisco to Chincha to Ica
So quick update as I am pressed for time.
We chilled in Pisco for 2 more days being bums, eating ceviche and touring the wildlife. All in all a good time, though not as good as the previous two days. What goes up must come down I suppose. We didnt plan to stay the extra night in Pisco but we were asked to go out to a discoteca with some locals (on of which worked in the hostal) and figured it could be a good time. Turned out a little different though. We first got the hint it was going to be slightly odd when only 2 of them showed up, thus making it a sort of double date. We started out by going to a karaoke bar where ¨Ceviche Mixta¨(my band whose named was coined by a random Peruvian who found out our group of girls came from so many different countries) did our first performance. We did a beautiful rendition of Yellow Submarine and The Greatest Love of All. Quite a showing of talent I might say. Then we headed to the discoteca where things got un poco annoying. Nili and I wanted to dance together but the 2 guys, Manuel and Manuel would not leave us alone. When I tried to go to the bathroom Manuel uno tried to come with me. Ew. We quickly nipped their love for us in the bud and danced solo on the dance floor. We then got pushed into a dance circle with many Peruvians clapping us on. We were in the middle of having lots of fun when Manuel squared reappeared to tell us that these people were not our friends. Wierd.
Anywho we left promptly the next day, and by that I mean 2 pm. We arrived in Chincha, a town known for its African drumming and nightclubs. Things started going downhill when our hostal turned out to be a converted mental hospital, I ended up with terrible stomach problems, and the electricity in the whole city turned off. Not so fun.
Now we are in Ica, huancachina really, about to do some sandboarding and wine tasting.
peace
oH yes, I have about 20 new bugbites in case anyone cares. I think I am one big flea.

Best day ever, followed by the best day ever
WHAT a couple of days. Honestly, 2 best day evers in a row, who would have thunk it possible. What will top these days, possibly tomorrow!
So day one started with Nili and I arriving in Lima, after a night journey at 5 in the morning. Lima, especially its bus stops, is not the safest city in the world. Our plan was to catch a bus straight to Pisco but with no internet nearby and no idea what bus to take we were kind of lost. We sat in the bus station for an hour until 6 when we noticed that everyone except a fewsketchy looking men had left. To play it safe we found a cab driver willing to drive around looking for an open breakfast joint. After a half hour with no luck he pulled up in front of a fancy hotel. The bellboys outside informed us that they had a buffet breakfast for 7 dollars a pop. Normally 7 dollars would have been absurd, and we never would have accepted, but at 6 in the morning with nowhere to go we decided to splurge. However, spending that kind of money, we decided we were going to ave to get our moneys worth, and that we did. We ate for 2 hours striaght. The meal went like this...Fresh orange juice,3 rolls per person, jam, butter, cheese olives, papaya juice, scrambled eggs, mini hot dogs, pineapple juice, yogurt, tea, pancakes, cereal, pancakes again, more tea and then juice. By the end we were ready to explode, had all the waiters laughing at us, and the head lady of the hotel pissed off. After breakfast we managed to sweet talk our way into free internet also. Then we decided to go to my aunts house.We slept for a few hours, then had a wonderful lunch with her and my cousin. Then we did some window shopping, followed by a McDonalds feast. Then we caught a movie, and then went home to sleep. WHAT A DAY!
SO today we, Nili andI, are in Paracas, near Pisco. We are staying at my cousins cousins hostel,which is super awesome because it is free and wonderfully located. We slept late and then headed to lunch. I had wonderful ceviche. Then we headed to the beach where we met Hugo. Hugo is guy who travels around selling hand made jewelry. I bought the most beautiful bracelet which he insisted he made by hand. Ithink he could tell we werea little skeptical and he offered to meet us on the boardwalk anhour later to show us how he does it. So we took a nap on the beach and met him after an hour. We spent the rest of the day sitting on a blanket where he sells his jewelry and learning to make bracelets.He also demonstrated how he makes metal jewelry and gave us each one earring. Tomorrow after a boat tour of the ballestas islands we toild him that wewill return and learn to make the matching pair. I tried to insist to pay for the materials but he completely refused saying that this is the way he learned and its how the craft continues. So freakin awesome.
Peace out

We did it!
WHOA...what an experience. I have to say that this trek was by far the most physically demanding thing I have ever done in my life. Four straight days of hiking 6 to 8 hour days, mostly straight up...honestly I can not describe it in words. What I also can not describe in words was the feeling of making it to the highest point on the trek, 4750 meters up in the sky. Its really amazing what you can do if you try. I wont lie, there were many points in the trip that even the amazing scenery of wild horses and snow capped mountains could´nt lift me up. For example, half way through the first day it began to downpour. Being tired, out of breath, soaking wet, and freezing has a way of pulling down moral. That said, the majority of time I was super happy, amazed by scenery, and amazed at my bodies ability to keep on going. Once again, I was the leader of our pack, and even got called a ¨little elf¨, whatever that means, for my amazing ability to walk on slippery rocks.
One fun anecdote from the trip... We ate in a tent with our 2 guides, both Peruvian, 2 german ladies, a man from new zealand and his girlfriend from Ireland, nia nili and myself from the states, pepe from england, and naomi from ausi. One night after dinner we sat around the tent and decided to amuse ourselves by each group singing their national anthem. Nili didnt know ours, and Nia couldnt stop laughing, so essentially, I sang the entire anthem on my own. I totally butchered certain parts but got a nice clap at the end.
Ok after 4 days of hiking and 5 hours in a bus, I am off to shower. Then we catch a night bus to Lima and then down to Pisco. Hope all is well.

Gimelwald no more...
Things here continue to be an adventure. Before leaving Huanchaco Pepe befriended a fisherman. Huanchaco is famous for its fishing boats made of reeds. They look like surfboards but aint. Anyway, we all got personal 15 minute rides in the ocean ! It was really awesome. I´ll try and post pictures sometime soon.
We are now in Huaraz which is right next to the Cordillera Blanca. Thats a super awesome mouintain range. Google it, its beautiful. SO yesterday we went on a day hike 4500m up into the mountains. You all would have been so proud. Most of the girls struggled either the whole time, or most of the time. I, on the other hand, spent the whole trip, 6 hours, walking with the guide right up front. He said I was a ¨great walker¨, and Nia called me a ¨Professional¨. Haha. It was really awesome, we had to do some actual climbing at some points, and use ropes at others. The top of the hike was Churup Lake, one of the most beautiful places I have ever been, google that one too.
To get to the start of the trail we took an hour long car ride up into the mountains. The roads , if you want to call then thatm, were rocky and hard to drive through. The villages we past were so amazing. I saw people building a home out of bricks made from earth, saw a festival going on in one village with dancers and a newly built mini bull fighting ring, saw circular huts covered in straw rooves, saw a little child herding a flock of about 20 sheep, etc etc etc. Basically it was just amazing to see all these little villages completely untouched by tourism.
Tomorrow we are heading off on a 4 day trek through the mountains. DOnt worry, we have a reputable guide, actually 2, four donkeys, and all the necessary camping shiznit. The trek, although longer, is supposed to be alot easier than yesterdays trip. Its called the Santa Cruz Loop, and is pretty much the most popular trek. I like to stick to the beaten tourist track.
Today is a chillax day. I look forward to doing nothing allll day.

On the road again
So we began our journey on Thursday. My aunt accompanied me to Cruz del Sur, the bus in Lima,where I met my friends from Huancayo. To recap, the group for this leg of the trip is Nili from NY, Nia from Chicago, Pepe from London, and Naomi from Sidney. The bus was an 8 hour trip from Lima to Trujillo, our first stop, and the farthest north we planned to go. Luckily, I was seated in seat number 11, my lucky number, so nothing could go wrong. Well, for the most part it wasan uneventful trip,which I am happy about. I wsa however seated next to a 90 year old man with the worst snoring problem I have ever encountered. Needless to say I didnt sleep much.
We arrived in Trujillo at around 8 in the morning. We had already chosen a hostal in the guidebookand headedright over. After securing a room with 5 beds for 15 sole a person (around 4.50) the group headed for breakfast. I had a wonderful fruit salad with yogurt and muesli. It was faboo and I could once again feel the vitamins flowing into my veins. After breakfast Nili, Pep and I went to our room for a nap. About an hour later Nia and Noami come charging through the door telling us they had met some really hot Peruvian guys who would show us around Trujillo. Nia insisted Nili and I would find them especially hot and SAFE.
Despite being skeptical we went to meet them in the main square. Honestly they were quite attractive and nice. However, the moment they started speaking(in perfect english), I was reminded of Brad Pitt in 12 Monkeys (for anyone who has not seen 12 monkeys, this reference has nothing to do with his good looks. He played a psycho.)
Sowe all went to a restauran, talked and hung out. It was nice to get to know some locals, but that was enough for me. Nia really wanted to meet them at a disco that night but I was not in the mood to become anyones crack mule and everyone else agreed.
The rest of our time in Trujillo pretty much consisted of touring old houses and getting to know the city.
Yesterday we leftTrujillo nd headed to Huanchaco, a coastal city 20 minutes away. We ended up finding a hostal where we decided to camp out. We pitched our tents, and hung out in hammocks all day. At night we made a giant fire, made smores and banana boats (the australian and english version of camp fire treats, these girls had never even heard of smores) Later a groupof European travellers set up camp and we had rum around the camp fire with them. A good time was had by all. Not only did I taste my first ever banana boat, but I have become an expert at the English version of Hokey Pokey.
Today we visited Chan Chan, the largest adobe village in the world. It was really amazing. Along the way we met Simone, a girl from holland, who spent the day site seeing with us.
Tonight we take another overnight bus to Huaraz.
Hope all is well.
