Arequipa

I fled Cusco last night to keep myself from staying for months. I bought a last second bus ticket to Arequipa Peru en route to Santiago Chile. I had the pleasure of saving 3 dollars American and got to ride in the economy section of the bus. There might as well have been live chickens running around on the overnight 10 hour bus.

Now me and some friends from Essex England, but claiming to be from London are watching three consecutive football matches.

We checked into the hostel at 7 this morning and haven't left the tv room.


Jamie and James


The DVD wall that might be the plan.


We have also hatched a plan to catch another bus tonight. This would mean that my stay in Arequipa, the second largest city in Peru, lasted about 12 hours. Wish me luck.

Loki Cusco

Here are a few shots from inside Loki Hostel in Cusco. It is definitely different than the friendly confines of Loki Lima, but I can see how it grows on people. I am booking my train to Machu Picchu at the moment for 6am tomorrow. I really wish I had some form of alarm clock.

Blurry shot of the bar (this is how most people remember it)


Front Garden - my room is down the corridor that is cut off on the bottom right
