"Just wanted to say that Peru is truly amazing, it's extremely hot and humid in Lima, Chiclayo and Trujillo. I cant wait to see Cusco and Machu Picchu and get some relief from the heat. As your probably aware I had a slight hip up with one of the hotels in Lima.
Also, my luggage got damaged while travelling to Chiclayo. The tour agency has contacted LAN airlines and have spoken to them. Hopefully, I can have it repaired by Samsonite when I get back into Lima after Trujillo. Nothing too major.
The tour guides and my driver in Chiclayo and Trujillo are just great people, extremely professional. We connected straight away and we have had a ball during the last few days. Chiclayo and Trujillo is a place like no other in Peru. Extreme poverty and very dangerous when you head out of the city. Feels like you are in the Middle East. You wouldn't want to backpack here; you might not make it back home. You have to see how families live in these neighbourhoods. It makes you appreciate the life you live back home.
The Tucume Pyramids, Sipan Pyramids, Sun gate and Moon gate ruins were spectacular. Some places the site was only occupied by just me and my guide. Talk about a private tour. It doesn't get more private than that.
I'm seeing the Chan Chan ruins today. It's 6:28 am local time. Off to have breakfast now, so I keep you posted.."
