To reach Machu Picchu one must first navigate a path over the Andes
Mountains, instead of hiking I chose to ride across by horse. As a
novice rider every day was special, a real adventure and one that I
shall never forget. Along the way I stayed in purpose built lodges,
had a dip in a glacial lake, received a blessing from a Shaman and
ate guinea pig for lunch. Later I managed to survive: a car crash,
hotel eviction, a terrifying flight over the Nazca Lines and a
severe bout of food poisoning. Life is seldom dull when I am on my
travels.
