We celebrate my partner’s 30th birthday in a big way: traveling to Peru to embark on a five day hike to one of the Seven Wonders of the World: Machu Picchu, but before our excursion can start, we have to spend a few days acclimating to the altitude in the old capital city of the Incas: Cusco!
A few hours after arriving back on the mainland, we’re back on the road and head to the coastal town of Montañita for some drinking, relaxing, and whale watching!
After a few nights in Guayaquil Audrey and I are off to the city of Puerto Ayora on the island of Santa Cruz in the Galapagos archipelago. Our first days are spent visiting the Darwin Research Station, scuba diving, and reflecting on mankind’s place among nature.
Audrey and I spend our second day in Munich at the Marienplatz eating a lot of sausage, drinking more beer, watching soccer and getting incredible views of the city.
