My Trip to Peru

Next Monday I'm going on vacation to Peru. I've visited the beautiful country in the past but haven't really been outside of Lima, the capital of Peru. One of places I plan to visit is Machu Picchu: Machu Picchu - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

During my stay in Peru, I will meet a deaf Peruvian e-buddy named Carla. She will introduce me to her deaf and hearing friends. I wonder what their sign language is like but I'll find out soon. Of course, I'll be visiting some family members who still live there (yes, I'm Peruvian).

I'll be posting pictures and updates in this thread from time to time, so be sure to check back!

I think I will, if he comes to my city would be better. I'm working so I can't travel right now.

While I had a really awesome time in Peru unfortunately, I do not have any pictures to share with you guys. My camera got lost, or should I say stolen, at some nightclub in Peru.

I'll post my experience shortly. There are so many places I've gone to that I don't even remember some of the town names. Didn't get a chance to go to Trujillo and meet AD member xsuperchick. Next time.
