Will y'all forgive me if the blog name does not match my destination?
I've just landed in Lima en route to Cusco, Peru. In a few days, I'll be setting off on the Inca Trail with two dear friends from home, then trips to Lake Titicaca and Arequipa to round out the two week trip. It's the typical vacation length from the corporate world but I guess that's who I am now.
Still though, revisiting my travel gear felt like embracing old friends. Each item brings back memories, both good & bad: a silk sleeping bag liner that saved me from questionable guesthouse sheets. A quick dry towel warming me after a Mekong river swim. A backpack that has been by my side (on my back?) for every international trip I've taken.
Hopefully I won't be resenting my backpack too much on Day 3 of my hike!!
Have a great trip and be safe! I can't wait to read about your adventures.
