It's been cloudy ever since I got here.
It doesn't rain though.
It gets pretty cold at night.
This capital isin't as scary as it seems. It's spread out and has a few favelas.
Miraflores is an awesome and touristy place.
I met up with Daniel and Ina and we randomly went to La Lucha, which is famous. I had their "asado" sandwich and I hope to eat there again... It was delicious!
We hung out, caught up and walked numerous times around the cat park. A group of girls interviewed us for their English class.
The next day we took the "free walking tour" and maybe it's because we did them at other places, but they're just not as interesting...
They took us to the centre of Lima. We watched the changing of guards. Took us to a market. Showed us a few churches... Gave us free samples of pisco. And collected their tips and we had to find our way home alone!
Then we went to get ceviche at "Punto Azul", it was delicious!! El Muelle in Barranco is good too, terrible service though! I suggest everyone try Peruvian ceviche atleast once in your life!
Lima has so many food choices that don't make you sick!!! :)
It's also pretty clean. It's just a little difficult to navigate sometimes. Taxis are usually assholes that over charge me. Buses are always packed and stuck in traffic.
Barranco is interesting at night. It's hipster and fancy. Limeños love to dance and that's where you can find them.
Lima has coast, but it's a cliff... So no possibility of beaching! Not that you'd want to, because it's always cloudy and never rains!
Best museum is: Larco, it has a fascinating collection of pottery!
Even an erotic section.
Going to the movies is 9soles.
Kaclla Hostel is Miraflores was phenomenal, I got great sleep there! Their showers suck though. Maybe 6drops per minute? The manager lady is pretty rude too.
Check out LarcoMar mall, it's pretty nifty.
Leaving Lima, and going north, I booked the panoramic seat on top, on the left... I got to see a lot of the coast.
It was fascinating to see so much sand, and little homes built on top of it.
Once in the state of Piura, you can see them drilling for oil and you can see the palm trees.
