Peru Trip 2011
This year our journey will take us to Peru and Bolivia. You can visualize our trip here, or by clicking on ‘Journey Tracker’ in the menu above. During this trip, we will be visiting museums and archives to consult historical documents and validate several hypothesis. We will also stop by Cusco, meet with local archaeologists, and visit the site of Machu Picchu to celebrate the 100th anniversary of its discovery. From Cusco, we will also explore the mountains, following the ancient Inca road, which would also be a great opportunity for us to test our physical reactions with altitude sickness in order to prepare for our next expeditions. We’ll then go all the way to the Lac Titicaca where we’ll explore the land of the Uros, before reaching La Paz in Bolivia, the last stop of our trip.
