travelers stories about Mountain range in Cusco, Peru

Mountain range in Cusco, Peru

The first photographic procedure was developed in 1839, when Louis Daguerre perfected the technique of Joseph Nicéphore Niépce and disseminated it worldwide in Paris, at the French Academy of Sciences. This procedure was based on the invention of the daguerreotype, which consists in obtaining an image on a polished silver surface. On August 19 it was chosen as the World Day of Photography because that same day, in 1839, the daguerreotype was established as the first practice of the photographic process and the French government announced that photography had been invented in the city of Paris

Landmark in Cristo Blanco, Peru

I was in Cusco, Peru and saw a statue of Christ illuminated in the night sky. The very next morning I asked a local where I could find the statue that they called Cristo Blanco. After a short taxi ride, I walked to the open arms of the statue that overlooked the city. What a beautiful sight.

travelers stories about Glacial lake in Laguna Humantay, Peru

Glacial lake in Laguna Humantay, Peru

  68 km from Cusco


There are places that we imagine exist, when we began to plan our trip to Cusco, we discovered the Humantay Lagoon, and we were impressed with the beauty of that country, the track is not easy, we had a rainy weather that made the trek more difficult but that does not take away the desire to keep going up to this great lagoon. On the way you will find incredible landscapes that make the walk more pleasant
