My story

HOME

Description:

In 2018 I backpacked through Peru alone. My trip started in Lima, the capital, and then traveled to Paracas in the Atacama Desert and the Islas Ballestas. After a few days I traveled on to Cusco, the Inca capital, with a stopover in Ica. I then stayed in the Cusco region for about two weeks and visited the Sacred Valley of the Incas and Machu Piccu. It was a breathtaking journey, with unforgettable impressions and warm encounters.

The Islas Ballestas are ruled by birds. They produce the valuable guano. They can s(h)it wherever they want.

During my landing in Lima, Peru, I noticed this hill. This is the Cerro La Regla. It's located on the border between Callao and San Martín de Porres. At its peak, there's a statue of Jesus.

There I sat in my bus back from Cusco. Shortly afterwards we were stuck in traffic.😒 These were my last hours in Peru. 🚌 In the video first you see the district of San Juan de Miraflores, then Santiago de Surco. That's about a week after the 2018 Peruvian regional and municipal elections.

On the way to the Islas Ballestas you also pass the Paracas Candelabra. The figure is 595 feet (181 meters) tall. It can be seen 12 miles at sea. Little is known about the origin. Nearby ceramics of the Paracas people were found. These were the previous culture before the Nazca culture, known for their giant geoglyphs in the desert.

Picture in Islas Ballestas

🌊The Islas Ballestas are a group of small islands. They are part of a nature reserve and home to numerous animal species.🐧💩 Thousands of seabirds produce guano here. This is caused by the reaction of bird droppings and limestone and is traditionally used as a fertilizer 🚜, but also in the production of explosives💣. The word guano comes from Quechua, where it's called "wanu". 🤓 Responsible for the chemical reaction is the nucleobase guanine contained in the bird's urine.

Red paper wasp,
Polistes canadensis
(10/2018 in Santa Teresa, Peru)

I've often encountered them in the Cusco region. With a wingspan of about 5 cm, they belong to the larger wasp species. The species name refers to Canada, but it doesn't occur there. The first describer, zoologist Carl von Linné, was misinformed. The red paper wasp lives in neotropical regions from Argentina to USA. Unfortunately, I couldn't photograph any of them alive. But a dead insect can also be quite interesting! I think it would fit well in a Star Wars movie, right?

The Pachacutec Monument in Cusco includes a small museum and you can enjoy the view from above.
Pachacutec transformed the Kingdom of Cusco into the Inca Empire. He is probably the most popular Inca and you will find portraits throughout the country.
