bordering Argentina and Brazil, the astonishing Igauzu falls
I been wanting to see the falls the moment I first heard of their existence! I would often visit google images and be blown away. I feel very blessed that I was able to see them because the very next week, a storm came around and many travelers had to cancel. Fortunately, I got the…

meeting the city— Córdoba, Argentina
Big city with multiple vibes. This city is a fave!! It reminded me of home (but only a little bit) because of the hippy neighborhood known as Güemes > otherwise, there’s definitely a German influence here. + many buildings have a European look to it. Once you walk a few blocks from the hippy neighborhood,…

Rainbow Mountain
It took a lot of energy to continue onto to another hike. Honestly, we were only a pinch away from setting off to the next city, Tacna. But, that would result to missing two planned hikes. And I just couldn’t pass up two. Rainbow Mountain, originally called Vinicunca, is Peru’s second most famous hike (after…

Chapter 2: Salkantay Trek to Machu Picchu
Our wake this morning is at 5:00 am. We had breakfast at the home stay. Honestly, the worst breakfast ever. Water downed oatmeal with 3 small slices of banana, cold toast with jam or butter, eggs were decent and the option for tea/coffee to drink. At least it was enough to get us through the…

Ica, Peru
Stopping by this city was mainly for Huacachina. Known as the sandboarding, dune buggy, amazing sunset and party experience. After the 5 1/2 hour bus ride, we decided to stay at a hostel outside of Huacachina. This is to avoid high prices (maintaining our $35 dollar budget). And to also see what was outside of…

New York, 2021
Big city, tall buildings, bright city lights, street art, melting pot, monuments.. what isn’t there to love in New York City? I’ve always dreamt of visiting the east side of America. New York is known for its own distinctive vibe that would never be considered an environment similar to Washington state, Hawaii, Texas or Florida.…
