I'm sure most of you heard plenty about the famous Nazca lines so I don't want to sound superfluous. Once you get above 2km above the sea level the air becomes thinner, it is harder to breathe and visually everything becomes clearer. Driving through the Peruvian Andes was very challenging and tiresome but the scenery was breathtaking. The photos don't do it justice but the air looked and smelled differently, not just because my brain was starving for oxygen or that my mouth was full of coca leaves.
