Would you hike 40+ miles over 5 days to see Machu Picchu?
|
In October, we did something crazy! We trekked for 5 days and over 40 miles from Cusco, Peru to Machu Picchu! If you've never been to Peru, or never heard of this, the Salkantay trek is a popular trekking route that goes from the Andes Mountains to the Amazon jungle and ends at Machu Picchu, with elevation up to 15,000 feet! And we may have been a little crazy, because before that we had never done a backpacking trip, never hiked 40 miles in 5 days and never hiked at over 10,000 feet.
And as challenging as it was, it was such an incredible experience! The trek was definitely life-changing, and Machu Picchu was so incredible to see in person! On top of Peru was so amazing and we have so much to share about the country, so will be sharing a lot of posts soon! But now that we're home and recovered, we can't wait to do more multi-day treks to do in new countries. So tell us, have you done anything like this? Is this something that you'd like to do in the future? Cheers, Tip and Tarah

Hey Reader! If you guessed that we went back to French Polynesia in our last email, then you were correct!! We don't often go back to the same country multiple times, only because there are so many other great places to visit! But when I saw a flight deal to French Polynesia (which is the beautiful Bora Bora, Moorea, Tahiti and more) for $350, I had to jump on it! We absolutely loved French Polynesia the first time we visited! The water is to die for, the people are amazing and the food was...
