After having ridden over 3,000 kilometres on our bikes across Bolivia, Jacobo and I decided to spend the last ten days of our trip in Peru. We didn't have a plan, only a deadline, in ten days time we would be flying out of Lima. Peru turned out to be much warmer than Bolivia, a lot more touristic but the scenery was just as nice. Machu Picchu was very impressive, the mountains surrounding it are spectacular and the hikes around the area are very relaxing. Another Peruvian highlight was sand skiing in Ica, if you are a skier and happen to be in Peru, don't miss your chance. We rode motorbikes on a beach, went on hikes, had 18 hour bus rides, raced through traffic to find a lost GoPro, chased buses and surfed. Overall, Peru was an unexpected success.  Our ferry in Lago Titicaca. The lake connects Bolivia to Peru and sits at an altitude of 3,812m  Copacabana, Lago Titicaca Cusco, the capital of the Inca Empire  Sunrise in Machu Picchu. Can you spot the llama? Taking a dip in the Urubamba river while hiking down from Machu Picchu.  The only mode of transport you can use to reach Aguas Calientes, the town at the bottom of Machu Picchu. We chose to walk. Jacobo's face after sitting in a bus for 18 hours
 Fresh powder sand. Dropping in 3, 2, 1...   Huacachina. In this oasis we met two motorcycle riders who then took us riding with their KTM 450s around the dunes and beaches. Surfing in Lima Enjoying a beer on the last day of our trip in Lima. Where to next?
