  • Lake Titicaca Peru is the biggest lake in all of South America and the highest navigable lake in the world, but it is also the root of much of Incan mythology! We're grateful to learn what life is like on Lake Titicaca by visiting the Uros Floating Islands, Amantani Island and Taquile Island.

    /// ABOUT US ///
    Hi! We are Eric and Sarah, a couple of Canadians currently travelling around Peru. We’ve been married since 2017 but have known each other since we were only 6 years old! During our last year of university, we spent 4 months in Honduras on a semester abroad and fell in love with Latin America. Since then, we began planning and saving to do an extensive Latin America tour. 2020 delayed those plans by half a year but during this time stuck in BC, we explored a new hobby (like everyone in the pandemic) of videography and photography. We are now using our new skills to document our adventures around South America. Our desire through these videos is to provide helpful and inspiring content for other travelers while also showing people around the world how beautiful and beautiful South America truly is! Thanks for following along and please leave a comment to say hi!

    During the first years of the Colonization of Peru by Spain, there were a group of people who were writers. They wrote everything they saw. Their name were Cronistas. There are registered information that they saw reed boat going from the Coast of Peru to Panama and viceversa

    Kon Tiki was the boat made out of reed from Titicaca Lake ( Totora) for navigating the Pacific Ocean from Peru to Polynesia. It is been found Inca names in Polynesia as Amaru Island - what means Isla de la Serpiente - Snake Island

    There is a lot of evidence - not accepted officially by "science" - that Incas were great sailors. We can find Inca Ruins as far as Isla de Pascua - Easter Island where was stablished the Rapa-Nui people
