Yes Ariquipa feels much more like my vibe. Much smaller and safer, but still over 1.5 million peruvians. Wow this place has a very westernized economy. Many wealthy people here, and the architecture is amazing. All the buildings are made from very pourous white volcanic rock and many are more than 500 years old. The food here is also very good, and cheap. Maybe 4 to 5 US dollars for a great meal. It feels like a small town vibe, but still bustling like a big city. The are so much more advanced and westernized then I expected.
We are still looking for more off the beaten track adventure. So the very next day we take off to Cuzco in search for a 4 day trek to see the ruins of Macchu Piccu.
