Machu Picchu, Peru 🇵🇪
Perched high in the Andes, wrapped in mist and mystery, this ancient Incan city feels like it was built for wonder. No billboards. No chaos. Just stone, sky, and a civilization that somehow figured out how to build perfection… without a Home Depot.
- Hike the Inca Trail (or one of its quieter alternatives) and earn your entrance the hard way
- Arrive early — sunrise hits different when the clouds lift
- Climb Huayna Picchu if you’re brave (and okay with steep stairs that test your life choices)
-
Stay in Aguas Calientes the night before so you’re first in line
Machu Picchu isn’t about rushing. It’s about wandering, sitting, and letting the place do its thing. It’s proof that when humans build with intention, the result can echo for centuries, the same reason we care so deeply about where things come from and who they impact.
Happy Travels!
