  • Huacachina, Ica is a desert oasis town in southern Peru known for its GIGANTIC dunes. People come from near and far to see the majestic landscape and try their hand at sandboarding (and sand skiing) in Huacachina.
    Huacachina was pretty high on our Peru Travel Bucket List before we came here. Even so, it somehow ended up being the last place we visited in Peru! This place is seriously AWESOME!! By far our favourite place in Peru that we've travelled.
    We booked through Peru Hop for transportation and tours and could not be happier with the experience! www.peruhop.com/

    /// ABOUT US ///
    Hi! We are Eric and Sarah, a couple of Canadians currently travelling around Peru. We’ve been married since 2017 but have known each other since we were only 6 years old! During our last year of university, we spent 4 months in Honduras on a semester abroad and fell in love with Latin America. Since then, we began planning and saving to do an extensive Latin America tour. 2020 delayed those plans by half a year but during this time stuck in BC, we explored a new hobby (like everyone in the pandemic) of videography and photography. We are now using our new skills to document our adventures around South America. Our desire through these videos is to provide helpful and inspiring content for other travelers while also showing people around the world how beautiful and beautiful South America truly is! Thanks for following along and please leave a comment to say hi!

    PS. I certainly would like to buy you a coffee, even a good bottle, but I don’t know how to do it. I heard there are plenty of scammers especially target at old forks. I will never give my credit numbers.

      Thank you so much, Delores! We appreciate that you want to buy us a coffee, but we understand your wariness to put in your information online. That’s a great instinct. Thanks for watching!

    Eric & Sara, Thanks you so much for making all of your videos about Peru so special for me. The way you presented your experience in my country has been great. I hope to see you in the future visting Northern Part of Peru what is full of pre-incas cultures everywhere. Thanks again. It is somehow sad to see you leaving Peru. I will be seeing your wonderful videos in the next country

    so to recap your visit to Peru:
    A rainbow mountain
    Panoramic view of the ocean from the most gigantic cliffs anywhere on earth.
    An ancient culture living on floating islands plus island hoping on the highest navigable lake on the planet.
    Historic architecture from the Kingdom of Spain.
    A blue lake at the bottom of gigantic snowy mountains
    skiiing from enormous dunes with a movie like oasis
    A rock volcanic city with a canyon
    and of course, one of the 7 wonders of the world, an enigmatic ancient palace high above the clouds built by a real emperor of the Americas.
    Hope you can top that on your next trip.
    Nice vids and come back soon!

    It looked like so much fun! I love the sand mountains, reminds me of the drive to the beach when I was little before all the construction near the beach in Lima! ❤️ I have enjoyed all your Peru videos and I hope you truly had an amazing time there. There are a lot of misconceptions about South America but we have beautiful countries that the world should enjoy too. Not where you will go but don’t miss Uruguay, Chile or Argentina

    • @EricandSarah

    Thank you SO MUCH for this video. Your insights are so valuable.

I am so thankful for the PDF you created that includes links to the bus booking site -- thank you so much!!!

    Love the video! Peru Hop & Bolivia Hop are great. We took them from LaPaz - Copacabana - Arequipa - Puno - Cusco, unfortunately we didn’t get to Huacachina or Nazca because we opted for more time around Arequipa to explore Cotahuasi Canyon. Maybe next time.
    I wanted take this opportunity to thank you for your great videos which helped us plan a successful summer family trip from your Basilica de Voto Nacional video to Teleférico and Sitio Intinan (which we never would have visited if not for you). We watch your videos to reminisce about places we have been, but also to get ideas for places we would like to go 😀. I have a few questions and hopefully you can find time to answer a couple of them:
    Did you see the Nazca Lines and what did you think?
    If you could revisit only one place in Ecuador, which one would it be?
    Same question for Peru?
    6 months in Ecuador and 2 months in Peru, are you leaving due to Covid restrictions, or just wanted to move on?
    Hopefully you guys are staying in South America for your next country(ies) Stay safe out there!

    • @EricandSarah
      @EricandSarah  2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      So great you’ve been following our videos!! Thanks so much for watching. Glad that we could give some good inspiration!
      We went to Nazca, but it’s not really worth it unless you pay for the flight. We were cheap that day 😂
      Only one place in Ecuador: Vilcabamba
      Only one place in Peru: Huaraz or Huacachina. (Haven’t been to Huaraz, but heard it’s incredible)
      Leaving for a combination of reasons, but none to do with restrictions.
      Stay tuned for our next video and some will be answered 😉
      Thanks for watching!

    The chocolate 🍫looks lovely and wine tasty. You will have these memories for the rest of your life. 😉....Enjoy,,,
    I do have a question, how much money did you save to go on your trip to South America. Did it take a couple of years? Are you going to move back to Canada after your adventures? Just curious....

    • @EricandSarah
      @EricandSarah  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Definitely memories for a lifetime 😀 We both worked full time for about four years after university. Once our loans were paid off, the rest was saved for this trip! And we will likely move back to Canada when we're ready to live somewhere permanently (because we really do love our country), but that won't be for a little while yet :)

    God loves you so much that He sent His Holy Son Jesus from heaven to earth, to be born of a virgin, to grow up and die on a cross for our sins, and to be put into a tomb 3 days and rise from the dead the third day, and He (Jesus) went back up to heaven. We must receive Sinless Jesus sincerely to be God's child(John 1:12).After we get saved by grace through faith in Christ, if we truly love the Lord Jesus Christ, then we will obey Jesus(John 14:15). Mark 1:15 "And saying, the time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: Repent ye, and believe the gospel." Jesus said in John 14:15 "If you love Me, keep My commandments. "There's a real hell. It says in Revelation 21:8 "But for the cowardly, and unbelieving, and abominable, and murderers, & immoral persons & sorcerers and idolaters and all liars, their part will be in the lake that burns with fire and brimstone..." Please sincerely receive Holy Jesus and put your true faith and trust in Him today and please repent.
