Map from The Rough Guide to Peru (2012)
Peru- A fourth trip- around Arequipa.
The cheapest and also most enjoyable prospect to escape the summer heat here is to go back to Peru. Ecuador is remarkably costly to fly to. I also looked at Bolivia and it also is notably more expensive to get to.
So this time, I propose to re-visit several places down in the south of the country near Arequipa to and add one or two new ones. I fly to Arequipa, then bus up to Cotahuasi where the landscape- a splendid valley- beckons. I also visit Chivay and Cabanaconde to see Colca Canyon.
Then I return to Arequipa, thence onto Juliaca and Puno.
I`ve been to Arequipa and Puno but not of the other places. It`s reassuring to include which is familiar places on the itinerary.

Carriers
The pictures all will be the larger- c. 20 x 22 cm - size. When I work on this scale I need take fewer carriers because I can paint a maximum of two such pictures per day. The paintings take up to a week to dry and after a week I can pack them together liberating carriers for new paintings.
The long and short of all that is that I shall need to take only about 20 carriers for five weeks travel- this saves considerably on packing space.
