Saturday 3rd November
Took an early morning flight from Lima to Arequipa on a low budget airline StarPeru. Arequipa is Perus 2nd largest city with a population of around 1 million. Checked into my hostel and got given the shed in the back garden! (refer to photos).
The hostel was great though being full of similar travellers some just starting their journey like me and some coming to the end. It was great to talk over dinner and share some tips on what to do and not to do.
In the afternoon I looked around Arequipa and went to the local museum where "Juaita" The Ice Maiden is. A great tour of many Inca relics and the best part was that the frozen body of Juanita is in a glass display cabinet. It was really interesting. Booked tommorrow to go on a 2 day guided tour of the Colca Canyon to hope fully see some condors.
