What the OP said👆🏼And that rainbow at 33:30 mins or so. All of it was mind-blowing. TFS. Great meeting Kourt, btw. Glad she felt better getting away from the mold. Linnea, it's true: you're truly such a gift to us. #MadRespect🙌🏼 #LovingGratitude🌀
As an archaeologist, this video footage was so dang moving. I was legit teary eyed by the end. What an incredible journey and to get to see those ruins in person, what a treat.
Linnea, at the point in your film where you show the first jaw-dropping scenery, I began to feel tears well up. I am 68 and I have sat in a chair, working as an accountant, for 35 years. I know a journey like this will be nothing I experience on earth. Then, in your film, you say you were brought to tears. Never let those who are mean get you down. Maybe they realize the same but the have a different reaction. You are bringing the most beautiful gift to the world and to women who never knew they could. I am awarding you the UA-cam Most Inspirational Documentary award. Thank you and may the road always rise to meet you!
"We settled in right as a storm swept through. With a blanket I sat under our overhang and listened to the rain while I watched as the clouds danced over the thermals in the mountains. And this was the most profound moment that I had on the trip. These mountains had such an incredible ancient quality, and a palpable and humbling power." ....I loved this. Beautiful.
Oh my goodness Linnea!!! You had such a beautiful adventure. Your footage was captivating. Thank you so much for sharing this. It was truly worth the wait.
Never have I felt your love of film and editing come through more than in this video. I truly cannot express just how well you were able to capture your trek; to the point that when you reached Machu Picchu, I was audibly gasping, as if I were seeing it's silhouette through clouds with you. Thank you so much for all the work that went into sharing this with us :)
Thank you for taking the time to edit this. This is something you'll remember when you're much older and now that you have this beautifully crafted video on the internet you can now share this with those who you hold dear near and far for many years to come :)
Thanks for sharing this wonderful adventure. I've always wanted to do this hike, so I'm super grateful to see it through your eyes. What a gift. BC Canada ❤
Took this same journey back in 2002 with my wife. The landscape, mountains, trails and people have brought back so many wonderful memories. We were very lucky to have sunshine the whole trip and hiking through the Sun Gate upon our arrival to witness the awe inspiring view & ruins of Machu Picchu is forever burned into my brain. I think it's time to go back after 22 yrs... Thank you!
I did this hike in May 2023 and it was a once in a lifetime experience. Was it hard? Yes parts of it are, especially the second day. Was it worth it...absolutely. What is great is you are disconnected and get to focus on yourself and how to get through challenges. Also, you really get a sense of community with the people going through it with you. Make the plans and go do it!
Seemingly They don't have much...but...look at where They live! They have it all! Absolutely breathtaking! Thank You so much,brought me to tears here!❤
Brought to the edge of tears and beyond. When you showed that lake, tears just poured down my face. I really hope that my 52 year old body will be strong and healthy enough to some day see that place with my own eyes. You are an inspiration and such a great filmmaker! Lean into that and keep these really special videos coming because they are making my tiny little world much bigger and more beautiful. Thank you!
Great Adventure, Last July I was there, same hiking through Salkantay Trek Agency, same places, same excitement, but no rain. I know what you felt walking on these beautiful picks and canyons... getting snacks on each little village, eating palta, papaya, granadilla, "soo good and refreshing", roasting and grinding coffee beans; crossing those little and unstable bridges... so much fun! and finally resting in Aquas Calientes.. eating so tasty food, before getting to Machu Picchu on the next day... all this was a magic experience that I can recommended to anyone... loved your journey!
Oh wow. That touched me deeply. I've seen so many documentaries on Peru/Machu Pichu. But, this was so personal. The perspective you presented gave so much more information and feeling. This is significant to me because my grandfather's heritage is Peruvian. Seeing the different terrains explained to me what my personal draw is to rainforest and mountains as well as high desert areas. You're becoming quite the story teller! Well done and highly appreciated. Keep shining.
Linnea this was such an amazing video. I’m blown away. You are truly a gifted storyteller and the cinematography was outstanding! I watched every ad to support this video, to support your work, and also so the video wouldn’t end so soon!! Thank you for sharing this beautiful experience with us. ❤
Linnea - simply AMAZING! Thank you for taking us all along on this most wonderful trip with you and Courtney. Your filming is spectacular - I felt like I was there. (my hubby and I watched it on our widescreen TV). And your humbling commentary along with viewing these ancient peaks and civilization - yep - brought a tear to y eyes. Gracias!
Linnea, you are literally sunshine and happiness all wrapped up in one kind and beautiful soul. Thank you for sharing your life with us and for inspiring us to do more and be more. Life is so short and we all need to learn to truly live.
Exhilarating hike ! Not many people can do this hike, so you are healthy and awesome, thanks for bringing us along. Wild land and nature , elements and weather. Beautiful-food along the journey to re-fuel your bodies. I never realized that the ruins were so high in elevation !! Majestic raw beauty of an ancient and lively land and sky. You go girls !
I did this same trek 4 years ago to spread my father ashes in the ruins . Your video totally did it justice. It took me right back to that time, making me very emotional. Well done Linnea, beautiful work🥰 and thank you
What a captivating video of your experience Linnea. You really are a natural at capturing the moment and the experience- feels like we are right there with you. Keep these adventures and videos coming !!!!!
This was an amazing experience to be a part of, even though I was on the outskirts looking in. Being able to visually and emotionally connect with the energy you were a part of brought, excitement, tears , amazement and longing for me. I cannot express my complete gratitude for your insight and taking me on a journey that was so surreal. Thank you so very, very much. ✌️
Wow, how awesome, what a great trip! I love the hostels along the way with the dogs ❤ That kind of trek definitely changes a person. Life is full of experiences and you're doing it. 👏❤️
Well, you guys well done! You captured the beauty of your trip not missing the emotions and mishaps along the way. Those are the kind of trips that grow you and neither of you would be the same because of it! I’m glad you got back safely!😊
Oh, Linnea…this is epic filmmaking. My heart was thrilled with your journey and all of its beauty. And now, with these visuals in my minds eye, I will go through my day grateful for the magic in the world. Thank you 😊
I think this incredible journey that you take us on with you is breathtaking. You tell a story like a book I just can’t put down. I pray that you continue to travel safely & entertain us with your amazing adventures. I am 60 & disabled but I enjoyed our trip to Peru, thank you
Thank you for making such a special video. I did a lot of backpacking and hiking in my younger years. I am 70 and may never be able to do that again, but I lived being thete with you through the video. So many magical moments starting with that amazing lake through to the final ruins of ancient times. Amazing journey.
I can't begin to express how much I appreciate the way you share your adventures. This is such a stunningly crafted video. I love this journey, and all of your adventures so much for you and feel so honored to get glimpses of them. You are a beautiful story teller. Thank you so much, Linnea.
Linnea, OH my goodness, that was beautiful! Thank you for sharing your journey! I was moved to tears many times during this video! You two ladies are so brave. WOW! ❤
Linnea this was the most beautiful and breathtaking video I have ever seen. It is not something I could do with my disability but yet I felt like I was right there with you both. I swear I could almost smell the moisture and rain.. thank you for taking us all along on this stunning trip. ❤️
Oh my! I was amazed by the beautiful landscapes you have filmed. Absolutely breathtaking! So happy for you, that you were there and seen these mountains in their beauty. Thank you for sharing. I will never forget these pictures or this video.
Thank you so very much for letting us be see such beauty , most of us will never ever see this in our lifetime. You are such an inspiration... the city upon the mountain.. my heart was filled with such awe it brought me to tears.
Thank you so much for sharing this video. It’s on my bucket list to do and I think it’s now moved up closer and I think self guided as well so I can enjoy the beauty and people of the country. So glad you shared. ❤
I was moved to tears thru so much of this journey you shared with us. Why? So many of us were. We are so grateful that you shared this with us. I believe we are all missing pieces of our past journey and this spoke to our hearts of a deep knowing. Even after having experienced this I now have more questions than I do answers. Please feel my grateful heart-filled hug. ❤
I could watch this video every day. And the last few minutes of the video and waiting for the sun to shine through on the ruins were incredible. Breathtaking, and I found myself tearing up. Thank you so much for sharing your life travels and adventures ❤
I just kept saying WOW, again & again & again. What a great video, majestic scenery, amazing history, & a couple of tough hiker/travelers. But, seriously, how do you girls hike practically barefooted? Oh my gosh, my feet were hurting. I could just feel the blisters. LOL. The mountains, waterfalls, altitude, the preserved ancient history...makes me feel closer to our Maker. I loved your openness, & how you expressed your feelings. That was a monumental trip of a lifetime. Thank you so much for taking us along.
Beautiful! I was in Macchu Pichu five years ago, after catching the first bus of the day up. To sit alone and just watch the magnificence of that extraordinary place in those incredible mountains, felt like such a gift. To see it again here, was a treat, plus your beautiful trek.
I'm so glad that you chose an alternative trail and had it mostly to yourselves. Some of the magic is lost when surrounded by hoardes, and particularly the peace which is so fitting for these mountains. Your filmography captures the grandiose element and brings back so many memories. Thank you
This got me teary-eyed because of the mesmerizing beauty. Your storytelling is so captivating. I am living in Estonia, where the highest point is 318 m. I can't even imagine what mountainous views like that are in person. Thank you for posting this video so I could live these experiences through your videos! 🤍🤍
Totally worth the wait for this video. GAH!!! What an amazing trip. I had to stop several times just to take in the beauty. 7:30 in the video literally looks like a "backdrop". The fact that a place like that exists and you had the opportunity to witness it - I've no doubt was incredible. I hope to be able to visit myself some day but am so grateful that you took us along and shared this with us. Thank you.
Linnea, this is probably the most beautiful video you’ve ever posted. Stunning, thought provoking, and inspiring. Thank you for sharing with all of us.
Oh my Gosh Linnea! What a beautiful, beautiful vlog! Amazing views and sharing! Gosh you are so talented... I am longgg time watcher of you and Akela and now all of y'all (Chris and Kobuk) together. So glad you took the time to create this as you wanted your story to unfold. Touched me deeply, those mountains are so very powerful (even though I am over here looking at them, I can still feel that power). No wonder you felt so changed when you returned to the States. Thank you for sharing - I am grateful!
Incredible! Thank you for sharing. I spent a lot of time in Peru over 10 years ago and this video reminded me why it is still my favourite country on this planet, just stunning 💚
Wow!!!!!!!!! Excellent video!!!! Thank you so much for taking us along!!! Some of us will never have a chance to do this kind of adventure. Again, THANK YOU!!!!!!
I would say, for me, that was one of your best if not the best videos. The music, your narrative and the video was just amazing. Thank you for taking the time to make this wonderful video. 🙏🏼😊
Thank you for this Linnea 💚I needed this! I had a rough couple of days and this video calmed me down and soothed me. I was completely lost in your words and your images. It made me feel alive and at peace for a few moments. 🙏
😃😲 WOW! OMG! And AhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhMAZING! Thanks SO MUCH for sharing! Most of us will never get there,;et alone seeing what you shared! LOVED the Pups along the way too! ALL the BEST and Cheers! :)
This is why you take longer than others to upload. The incredible gift that you are to put together a video so powerful & moving. You bring us with you on a journey of adventure that connects the soul to nature, your storytelling through poetry with some breathtaking views. This was beautifully put together and well worth the wait.
I was getting to tears at the beauty. I had no idea Peru looked like that. You guys are higher than Mt. Whitney which is the highest peak I've ever hiked. I remember having to consciously breath. Thank you for sharing this with us.
Truly captivating. The narration, videography, just the sheer stunning beauty of the journey. Loved every minute of this adventure. Thank you for sharing this journey. Safe travels. 💛
Wow! You have outdone yourself! You didn’t just take pictures and hike, but you created an experience for us all! Thank you, thank you, thank you! So many moments I was literally in awe! ❤
This was amazing. I felt like I was seeing something I could only ever dream of. Thanks so much for sharing your journey with us. I’m in awe at your courage to tackle a hike in those conditions, elevation, and wet days and nights.
What a beautiful video, Linnea! It really captured the magic of such a beautiful and mysterious place. And it’s so incredibly inspiring that you both did this trek solo! Thank you for sharing 🤗
Like so many of the comments here, I don't think I can quite capture how emotional I am after watching. The tears came first when you sat on top of the mountain, feeling their humbling power, and then again when you described Machu Picchu itself. Documentaries don't do the place justice, but this... this is powerful, this is talent, this is raw and poetic. Thank you so much Linnea ❤ The only request I'd have if I could is that we have subtitles for the spanish (if only the spanish that you can understand). But then it also might take away from the rawness of the film. So maybe not.. hehe that's why you're the filmmaker and I'm the admirer 🥹
As I sat and watched this video and you reached your destination I suddenly felt chills running through me. I can’t imagine the questions that went through your mind as you stood there taking it all in. Many of which will never have answers. Things that are left in the winds of time. What a gift you have been given in your own time Linnea.
You are such an amazing young woman! I am filled with gratitude for your sharing such a beautiful adventure. Thank you for opening your heart and your world to us!❤
The story, the videography, the poetic narrative, the people, the sheer adventure… bless you, Linnea. You are such a gift. ✌️❤️🥾🥾
so well put thanks

How do we vote? I'm 71 and feeling that same woman inspiration.
66 here. I, too, welled up and mourned the fact that I will likely never get to go.
"We settled in right as a storm swept through. With a blanket I sat under our overhang and listened to the rain while I watched as the clouds danced over the thermals in the mountains. And this was the most profound moment that I had on the trip. These mountains had such an incredible ancient quality, and a palpable and humbling power."

Incredible! Thank you for sharing. I spent a lot of time in Peru over 10 years ago and this video reminded me why it is still my favourite country on this planet, just stunning 💚
Simply amazing! I was in awe when the sun came through & lit up the view. Chills! I cant even imagine having been there in person! 💜😊
That’s one I’m going to save and watch daily till I see it ALL. thanks so much for going and for sharing. Luv you.

Wow! You have outdone yourself! You didn’t just take pictures and hike, but you created an experience for us all! Thank you, thank you, thank you! So many moments I was literally in awe! ❤
Wow! ❤ I have no words for the beautiful journey you just took us all on. Thank you so much for sharing this amazing footage 😊
This was amazing. I felt like I was seeing something I could only ever dream of. Thanks so much for sharing your journey with us. I’m in awe at your courage to tackle a hike in those conditions, elevation, and wet days and nights.
What a beautiful video, Linnea! It really captured the magic of such a beautiful and mysterious place. And it’s so incredibly inspiring that you both did this trek solo! Thank you for sharing 🤗
Like so many of the comments here, I don't think I can quite capture how emotional I am after watching. The tears came first when you sat on top of the mountain, feeling their humbling power, and then again when you described Machu Picchu itself. Documentaries don't do the place justice, but this... this is powerful, this is talent, this is raw and poetic. Thank you so much Linnea ❤
The only request I'd have if I could is that we have subtitles for the spanish (if only the spanish that you can understand). But then it also might take away from the rawness of the film. So maybe not.. hehe that's why you're the filmmaker and I'm the admirer 🥹
As I sat and watched this video and you reached your destination I suddenly felt chills running through me. I can’t imagine the questions that went through your mind as you stood there taking it all in. Many of which will never have answers. Things that are left in the winds of time. What a gift you have been given in your own time Linnea.
You are such an amazing young woman! I am filled with gratitude for your sharing such a beautiful adventure. Thank you for opening your heart and your world to us!❤
Beautiful. The last part at the ruins, the music and the videography wee made for each other. Fantastic journey.
