The start of Peru

---

Peru..brilliant...crazy drivers, soup for breakfast, volcanoes and style.
We are in Arequipa, a town located near the chilean border by Volcan Mysti. Its suprisingly stylish, with beautiful white buildings made of volcanic stone, lots of palm trees, hip young Peruvians cruising the bars and a ton of religous history to explore.
We have so far visited two monasteries, the most beautiful being the citadel of Santa Catalina, locked away from public view for over 400 years until 1970, it is still a working convent and is a truly remarkable place..it was stunning and we will let the pics speak for themselves.
Tomorrow we head out on a trek thorugh the Colca canyon, one of the deepest in the world. Will update when back...
