Arequipa was not originally on my travel plans – I´d never read anything about it or bothered to . not sure why not. But Camille, whom I met in Potosi, and spent Christmas with in Sucre, told me there was a gigantic monastery here and I should spend some time. Monastery? Old buildings? I´m in.
Day 32 – Puno, Peru – Sillustani Funeral Towers
I love all things ruins. Everything. If it is old, crumbling, and fantastic; I normally have to make a trip to see it.

Not only for the ruins, but for the surrounding scenery which is breathtaking. Even more so with a storm rollling in. (Storms are great from a far – as long as no rain touches me!)
