  • I'm traveling solo around Peru and first stop: Lima! I was so nervous at first, but quickly made friends at the hostel in Barranco and on the free foodie walking tour. As dining food capital of the world, I snagged last minute reservations to Central, the #2 Top Restaurant in the World!

    I think visiting FIRST the local markets knowing the elemental ingredients that exists in Peruvian cuisine was most right decision before go to dinner to CENTRAL because it gives a closer perspective of the innovation and probabilities of different dishes from those ingredients. Great video ! Greetings ! 😊

      Anxiety? Haha oh nooo that wasn't my intentions. My social anxiety definitely comes out when I try to hype myself up to go meet people at the hostel bar alone, but everything worked out well and as you can see, I had an amazing time solo in Peru! I hope you do go to Peru sometime :)

    • @felisaxo
      @felisaxo  Год назад +4

      Completely understandable! All 3 locations, speaking with locals and other travelers, have all said it’s been safe & no issues. There are some other areas/towns that are still a bit unstable but definitely not those 3. The locals are trying to get tourism back too so it’s felt really safe. Hope you have a great time and Lmk if you have other questions! I’m almost done editing Cusco vlog so that’ll be posted on Saturday!
