My first impression of La Paz this time was the same as the first time nine years before. The city is very hectic, which traffic and people everywhere.

With my batteries recharged after a couple of relaxing days in Cuzco, it was time to move onto the second country of this trip: Bolivia.

Places I visited, summary of expenses, my favorites pictures, and how it is to backpack in Peru.

Gerald and I got up at 4am to get breakfast at the hostel and try to be one of the first ones to enter Machu Picchu.

We got up at 5:30am to try to catch the sunrise over distant Machu Picchu. As it was still raining and super foggy, we couldn’t see the sun at all.
