Things I Like About Cusco

• Hot chocolate on the stove - that powder ish is not going to cut it anymore.  
• Walking around and always being surrounded by the natural wonder of mountains.
• Learning spanish and willing to sound stupid.
• Getting that look when your talking Spanish from a Peruvian that exist in every language - I didn't understand what the fuck you just said - with a slight a head cock and nose in stank face mode.
• Meeting new and inspiring people that I woulld have never met in not going outside my box.
• Literally being surrounded by some of the most profound history in the world.
• People pick their nose and pee on the street like it aint nothing . Respect the gangsta in it thou I won't shake your hand.
• Learning (and struggling) at salsa. Still need to work on mi tiempo but love leading how to follow. Life lessons in the beat.
• Being inspired to do new things that I never would have thought about before.
• Orgasms at the Nightsky. Nuff said. (even thou the ice from the drink currently got me on antibiotics)

(Damn son. A lot of this is about food.)

 

 

 

 

Ten Random things about Cusco

 

1. There are dogs on the street  like stray cats in Harlem (but they belong to ppl)
2. Related the previous point,  if your a female dog you are not living the good life becuase there strait dog orgies in the street and the male dogs are running a train on you (see photo)
3. Never pay more the 3 soles for a taxi anywhere, it is only about $.30 a sol - but you argue with the taxi driver if he wants to charges you 4 soles or even 3.50 soles and walk out if you need to.
4. People from Cusco don´t really smoke. the altitude here is high (and therefore less oxygen) so it doesnt make sense for their health.
5. Ramen noodles exist everywhere.
6. Coco-cola here is made with real sugar and not corn syrup and taste better.
7. No Peruvians own property on the Plaza de Aremes, which is the center tourist spot in Cusco.
8. Spring is as warm as it gets at a whooping 60 to 70 dregrees in the day and 40s at night, summer is the rainy season.
9. Women from here breastfeed on the street. I saw this lady sitting on the street with her child sucking on her goods using no hands just both of them sitting on the street - I would have taken a picture of it if I was disrespectful.
10. Cusco means the center of the world.
