Travel Peru : Exploring Andean Culture in the unknown Andes (and a bit of the jungle)

How great it feels to be out exploring for the purpose of photography again! Peru is so incredible and so unique in this regard. The geographical diversity is like nowhere I’ve been, but above all, the Andean people and their culture… What I regularly see here is special.

If you’re in Peru and you want to truly enjoy nature, to have fun in it – the jungle without a doubt is where it’s at. We had some great family bonding moments here. In a jungle hot spring pool, Mia learned to swim. We made new friends, visited countless waterfalls, and swam some more.

Just a couple of weeks before all the madness with Covid-19 began, I was having the time of my life. Joined by our friend Tata, from Belarus we were traveling the mountainous regions of Peru. The carnival season was finishing, but… as we now look back at everything, it was inevitable that we’d come across some celebrations.
