The trip to Peru is really coming together. I've booked a tour that runs from Cuzco to the Nazca Lines then on to Lima. We get to do a fly-over of the lines, to see them properly, which I'm excited about. Plus, this way I don't have to spend 30 hours on a bus, attempting to get back to Lima at the end of my trip.

I've also booked my trek up to Machu Picchu. I'm doing the Salkantay trek - 5 days, 4 nights, and up to 4650 m above sea level. Thankfully, I'm doing my trip backwards to most people - I'm hitting Cuzco and Machu Picchu last, so I'll have had plenty of time to acclimatize by then.

Other than those two things, I haven't booked anything, but they were the two most important things to get done. The rest of the time I'll be visiting cities, so there's nothing to book other than hostels.

One month! Then I'm off for 17 of Peruvian adventures.
