Hey everyone! I’m in a small beach town near Arequipa. Anyone in the area?

Heading to Arequipa next week if anyone's around

You should stop by Kafi Wasi coffee shop. Their Cacao Nitro Cold Brew is soooo delish.

Any other recs? 😊

I lived in Arequipa for 11 months and the following must be tried: Rocotto relleno( if you can handle some spice the dish is native to ARQPA), Ceviche, Lomo Saltado, Pisco Sour cocktail, Chicha Morada

Yanahuara Plaza for Queso Helado or to chill and grab a cup of coffee

Climbing part way up Mt Chachani or Misti

Colca Canyon (1, 2 or 3 day trip) - 1 day will be spent all in the car tho

Take the next items with a grain of salt as I lived there 10 years ago

Misti Pizza was great and had my favorite Chicha Morada

Mundo Alpaca to see animals and learn about the textile production

Oh def!
- Queso Helado from Dona Rosa on the second floor of Mercado San Camilo
- Pasta/Pizzas: Il Caffe Della Nonna, 13 Mojas, Pasta Canteen
- Coffee shops: Kaffeehaus, Kafi Wasi, Berakah Coffee, Masamama
- Chachani was so fun and challenging to trek but really cool experience
- Try a Saltena near the mercado. They are empanadas filled with potatoes and meat.
- Go to Yanahuara during sunset. It's so pretty there.
- Not sure if you're staying in hostels, airbnbs, or hotels but if you stay at the Hampton Inn they have hot tubs on the rooftop that you can use. Beautiful views from up there.
- Try pastel de papa at a restaurant not at the mercado.

Lovely! Thanks

None of them in Brazil ? 😒

Do the Salkantay trek to Machu Picchu if you have time! Epic trek

Hey everyone,

My wife and I are looking for a place to stay for 3–4 months—anywhere is fine, as long as it’s nice and has a workspace.

Do you know of any good places for this?

Hey 👋🏼
Im thinking about coming to coscu in June.
How’s the internet in general? Can I just book an Airbnb with WiFi or should I double check speed (for video meetings etc)?

Hi Jakob. Internet in Cuzco is normally as good as anywhere else. However, normally in Peru upload speeds are a bit slow given the fact that most places are copper wired. That should be enough to sustain video meetings, but probably gaming and streaming would be a challenge.

Alright! Should work well enough then. Thanks :)

Hey! Has anyone found any good coffee tours? I want to travel to the coffee region of Peru and would love some advice.

Pisac and Urubamba. What is better?

If anyone is in Lima next week on the 16th there's a coffee conference going on with a bunch of speakers. The tickets are free but you just need to register

Hey fellow travelers 🧳 I’m also in Lima starting tomorrow - feel free to connect :) I’ll be doing Arequipa and Cusco the following week.

I’m actually staying in Barranco but I decided to do this Timeleft dinner with strangers thing tonight. 😅 I prob won’t be done for a few hours

Any travellers in Cusco in August ?

Hey everyone! I need to leave some luggage for a couple of weeks in Lima. Any recommendations to where best do this? Thanks!

Hi Everyone, how’s working from Lima? How long do you recommend staying and where? Do you recommend any other places in Peru to work from?

I liked Arequipa
Lima is nice but so dark and cloudy it’s depressing

Yes that’s the idea I had, but most of the time on booking and so on you can’t sent a message before doing the reservation

Lima I didn't like, but you can work from there. Arequipa and Cusco very nice to work from.

Thanks Martin. And internet works well?
