Travel Story-Lima, Peru #6 Back to Lima
my funny nose...Back to Lima…
It was sad because I got hurt and I had to go back my rout which usually travelers do not go back the road they once already got. I went to emergency room in Lima, hoping my nose is fine, but after taking x-ray, a doctor said that your nose was broken. What should never happen was happened unfortunately. So, it was time to make a decision how I do my travel.
My answer was “keep going my way” after taking my body rest with a cast on my nose.

Travel Story - Ica, Peru #5- Huacachina




The Accident!!!
After tour Ballestas, I moved to Huachachina in Ica, which famous for the desert and oasis. For the backpackers, this place is where they relax and experience desert which is boogie tour that running on the rough mountain desert with a jeep and sand-boarding on sand valley. That is one of the funniest entertain activity in Peru, and even weather is great rather than Lima where I had kind of homesick because of gloomy wet weather.However, something that I never forget happened while boogie tour! The tour is after gathering eleven people per a jeep, riding rough sand dune and them dropping them off sand valley to do sand-boarding. It usually three times sand boarding on higher and higher valley. The last one, suddenly, I started to roll up on the really high valley with board. It was almost five times according to one of the group travelers who saw me. While rolling up, the board hit my nose, my face was burn with friction with sand, and had so many scratch. Of course, all my body was painful with bruises. When I was stopped, my face was covered with blood. It was really scared moment. The tour guide could not help wiping my blood on my face and driving back to hostel. Our tour had to be stopped because of my accident. At the hostel, I was a very famous girl for the accident. Everyone was trying to help me out and to take care about me. Yes, I was a star then there!Therefore, I had to go back to Lima for the hospital and to decide if I would keep going my travel.

Travel Story-Pisco, Peru #4 'Isla Ballestas'



Since leaving New York, the fifth day I leaved Lima to Pisco to see ‘Islas Ballestas’ which is Ballesta island. After bus, running early morning, dropped me ica stop, I got scared because this place was attacked by serious earthquake which killed about eight hundred people and ruined all of the place, so there was nothing but wracked house and some taxi driver who will drive tourist to the island. While I was taking taxi, I was still scared due to my terrible guess that what if he drive me some other place. But after 30mins, I got ‘Islas Bellestas’
After price negotiation of the ship-tour, I met other group which I have the tour together. So, our group for the tour was the tourist group from Belgium and me from Korea. But the problem was guide because he explained everything in Belgium language. Before the negotiation, the agent said there is English tour guide, but he is from Belgium, so since he met the group he only enjoyed what he guided in his language. Finally he explained me, saying ‘this is penguins.’ I said in my mind, ‘what? I know that!’.. Actually the place was not what I like, so I could be excused the situation. The only thing that I minded is the village not the tour place. Since the fatal earthquake, the poor village was still remaining destructed. I hoped this place get back their fame of the beautiful island.

Travel Story- Lima, Peru #3 Episode in Old Central Lima
I met some Korean backpackers like me in the hostel, so one day we went to tour for old Lime together. There was many people enjoying in central park, old Lima but we had to watch out someone who was tried to steal our bag as people’s advice. We were four and trying to go and look at thumb in old cathedral. But one of us already went before, so he left outside with local guy waiting us. After we toured it, we had to head go hostel because of dinner reservation leaving the local guy. We said sorry and took a taxi, but in taxi my friend, who wasn’t with us in cathedral, started to laugh and we ask why. He said, while we were touring inside, the local guy asked how he could say “Let’s have a sex with me’ in Korean language. There were two girl include me, and without knowing it, she and I felt sorry to the guy not having dinner together. We felt so bad and we blamed him how he could think of it. And, we thought that on going to travel would not easy, so we should care of ourselves because we were traveler by each ourselves. In this point, I sometimes feel that backpacking girl alone is not very safe. But still I prefer that!
