As it snows here in PEI, im flipping through the photos I took on my camera located over in a town located entirely a different hemisphere & ocean.
Paracas is a seaside fishing village, tourist hotspot and also home to a famously mysterious petroglyph i missed out on seeing.
But I did end up going to the Paracas desert national park (more to come on that)
Why did I miss out?
Well I got there , wandered around, took my first dip in the pacific ocean and was invited to have a free pisco sour later in the evening(a drink original to Peru) - however by the time that opportunity arrived i was already in a tattoo shop speaking in broken Spanish to the tattoo artists who were wonderful!
My guide was surprised when I told him where I was and what doing.
I then met up with my group later on at a hostel called "The wild rover" where they had a "Shot for song" kareoke going on, i met many people of different nationalies there (No canadians though) and it was epic.
We continued in into the night and i ventured off to after parties before eventually retiring for the next morning.
I was supposed to go on a boat ride , although I dont get seasick , however with a hangover my limits that morning were from the bed to the bathroom - so I missed it.
Much to my surprise later we'd go to a vineyard, where I had to turn down some really sweet wine samples - coffee and chicken were the only things on my mind in that moment .
I dont know how our guides did it considering they were partying just as hard as we were, but it was a memorable experience in itself!
I stayed sober for the rest of my trip there so I wouldn't miss out on ruins after that.
Also, theres a picture of one of the local dogs I took. I didn't see it until today but if you look closely, he might have a friend on his back.
Peace guys!
