\r\n A New Year\u2019s Reflection On My Peruvian Love Affair<\/a>\r\n <\/div>\r\n
\r\n

  Someone posted on an Expats in Peru group today suggesting that we end the year on a positive note and think of things we enjoy about living in Peru. (This group often seems to be used as a place to vent about what people DON\u2019T like.) As I love living here, and people visiting […]<\/p>\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n<\/div>

\r\n What\u2019s New for the 2018 Inca Trail?<\/a>\r\n <\/div>\r\n
\r\n

The main thing that\u2019s new for the 2018 Inca Trail is that permits have already gone on sale, as of October 5th. This is a huge departure from earlier years in which they did not go on sale until the beginning of the year. Each business day will cover successive months until the 17th, when […]<\/p>\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n<\/div>

  By Maureen Santucci Why part one and when is part two coming out you ask? Vamos a ver, como siempre\u2026 as always, we\u2019ll see. Here\u2019s why: The new rules go into effect as of July 1, 2017. Doing this in the midst of high tourist season is sure to cause a fair amount of […]<\/p>\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n<\/div>

\r\n Welcome Home to Arequipa\u2026 at the Villa Elisa<\/a>\r\n <\/div>\r\n
\r\n

      By Maureen Santucci While I admit that I usually have a pretty easy time making myself comfortable anywhere, it would be hard not to feel at home at Villa Elisa in Arequipa. My first visit here will definitely not be my last, and I found myself wishing that I had a week […]<\/p>\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n<\/div>

\r\n Do You Really Need a Tour Guide in Machu Picchu, Cusco and the Sacred Valley?<\/a>\r\n <\/div>\r\n
\r\n

Ok, so I\u2019m biased. I\u2019ve had the pleasure of working with some of the best guides in the area, so for me the answer is a resounding YES!! But I\u2019ll explain a bit about how it works here, and you can decide for yourself. First of all, something I had no idea of before I […]<\/p>\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n<\/div>

\r\n Secret Inner Workings of the Classic Inca Trail<\/a>\r\n <\/div>\r\n
\r\n

By Maureen Santucci Ok, not really. But a lot of people don\u2019t realize how it works, so let me break it down for you. First of all, hiking on the trail requires a permit which must be purchased through a travel agency licensed to provide service on the Inca Trail. Unique Peru Tours does not […]<\/p>\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n<\/div>

\r\n Hiking the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu: Always and Forever a Pilgrimage<\/a>\r\n <\/div>\r\n
\r\n

I recently had the chance to hike the Inca Trail again, for the first time in several years. It was a great opportunity to reflect and look at it with new eyes. People are often talking about how packed it is, that there are too many hikers on it, that it doesn\u2019t feel like a […]<\/p>\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n<\/div>","max_pages":1}
