Buenas tardes. Apologies for the silence of late, we’ve been on the move so much! I don’t have WiFi right now but I believe the last blog was on the Inca Trail. We’ve done so much since then! Trying to be brief: Amazing rainforest trip (I.e. the best ever)... We flew in a tiny plane from Cusco to Puerto Maldonado where we then caught a boat to the Amazon rainforest. Wow, the heat (and humidity!). We stayed in this really cute Ecolodge in the jungle for...

Buenos tardes amigos. So we survived four days (Saturday to Tuesday) of gruelling uphill, downhill and Peruvian flat! We hiked 50km altogether, reaching an elevation of 4,200m at Dead Woman's Pass on day two. Day one was pretty easy and we got to catch the Peru World Cup game with the locals. We saw a guy run past us up the hill with a table on his back and when we reached his house, we realised it was for a small TV to go on outside with the football on. Who kne...

Hola! Ok, being brief: Tuesday 12 June - we spent the day in Lima. We had a beautiful lunch (lomo saltado and ceviche, plus a Pisco sour and Pisco passion), explored the historic district and round by the coast.

Mountains everywhere and there’s a festival in town where the locals are performing tr...

Had to get a wedding blog in there... so we got hitched at Borgo della Marmotta in Umbria, Italy on 9 June 2018. Our day was perfect. Thank you to everyone that made it so special! Both those that were able to travel to Italy and those that were thinking of us at home. Now for the honeymoon... we’ve just landed from our 14 hour journey in Lima, Peru and checked into our hotel. The transfer from the airport was quite a culture shock to be honest - takes us...

So this is the big finale, our last blog to summarise our amazing adventure. What an incredible trip it has been over 6 months and 9 days, from packing our backpacks and leaving hand in hand on 1 December 2014 to arriving back exhausted at Heathrow on 9 June 2015. It could never have been long enough! Altogether we visited 15 countries (including 3 stop overs) and used 14 different currencies. We met a crazy number of fellow travellers of 24 different nationa...
