About Me

My photo
I am a bohemian nomad, someone who acts and lives free of regard for conventional rules and practices, but also one who moves according to the seasons. After traveling to over 100 countries and all 7 continents over the past 12 years I feel that I truly subscribe to the words of Mary Poxon, who said. "I sought to see the amazing as normal and the daily as unique, and in that swirling paradox I found the joy of travel." I will be forever in pursuit of new sights and adventures and hope that maybe I can convince a few more to give budget travel a chance. Budget travel gives those with little money an opportunity to travel and those with money an opportunity to travel longer.

Cuzco, Peru







May 18, 2007

Checked into my hostel and headed for the Plaza de Armas, the center of activity for Cuzco. I checked out several local travel agents for prices for the Salkantay 5day/4night hike to Machu Picchu. I found one which included cooks, porters, guides, entrance fee to Machu Picchu, accomodations for one night in Aguas Calientes and the train ride back to Cuzco for only $166.00.
