Visiting under the rain! -- This is the Basilica of the National Vow (Spanish: Basílica del Voto Nacional), a Roman Catholic church located in the historic center of Quito, Ecuador. It is the LARGEST neo-Gothic basilica in the Americas. The building is noted for its grotesques in the form of native Ecuadorian animals such as armadillos, iguana, and Galapagos tortoises. The towers stand at 115m in height. -- #weirdosabroad #ecuador🇪🇨 #ecuador #quito #visitquito #capital #basilica #basilicaquito #travelling #travelecuador #traveltheworld #southamerica #travelsouthamerica -- www.weirdosabroad.com (at Basílica del Voto Nacional) https://www.instagram.com/p/BuIgA8HlG58/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=epedw2bn9e42

Good morning Arequipa, Peru ! -- Arequipa is a colonial city in the southwest of Peru. It is surrounded by volcanoes, high mountains and it is underrated gem – it’s an absolute must-visit. 🤩 Nicknamed “La Ciudad Blanca” for its unique white buildings made from a local volcanic material called sillar, Arequipa will lure you in immediately with its distinct beauty and charm. You may even feel like you’ve left Peruvian borders and any proud Arequipeño would say that you have... (Arequipa did create its own passport at one point 🤔) -- #weirdosabroad #arequipa #peru #laciudadblanca #traveltheglobe #traveltheglobe #travelling #southamerica #citycenter #mainsquare #travelcouple #travelsouthamerica #travelworld #travelingthroughtheworld #travelperu (at Ciudad De Arequipa) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bt40DGtlbwb/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1usp6vikkdqvl

Exploring the Inca citadel of Machu Picchu. -- The iconic Machu Picchu, is believed to have been constructed as an estate for the Inca emperor Pachacuti (1438–1472). The Incas built the estate around 1450 but abandoned it a century later at the time of the Spanish conquest. Although known locally, this was not known to the Spanish during the colonial period. It was "rediscovered" in 1911 and brought to international attention. -- Today the Inca settlement is so popular among tourists of the world that the government had to impose a limit of 5000 (!) visitors per day. Luckily the site is big which makes it still possible to wander quietly in some parts of the site. -- #weirdosabroad #traveltheglobe #machupicchu #inca #incaempire #incacivilization #incas #machupiccucitadel #citadel #peru #travelling #southamerica #ruins #walls -- www.weirdosabroad.com (at Machupicchu, Cusco, Peru) https://www.instagram.com/p/BtW1UycF7mv/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=19wlz5p6cet8h

Machupicchu is just behind this cloud! 🙈 When it finally appeared we were too excited by the view to actually get a picture! 😅 Don't blame us we climbed a lot of stairs to get here on top of Machupicchu mountain, which sits at 3082m. Isn't the view from that height impressive? #machupicchu #machupicchumountain #ontop #mountain #inca #ruins #archeologicalsite #archeology #cuzco #cusco #peru #southamerica #wander #wanderlust #weirdosabroad #travelling #traveltheglobe #travel #travelcouple #3000m (at Machu Picchu Mountain) https://www.instagram.com/p/BtV6dlbFSrX/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1dw2uofmmncya

Stairway to heaven! There is one thing that we learnt while visiting the Machupicchu ... is that they love stairs!!!! We climbed stairs for one hour to get to the entrance and then we climbed another 2800 stairs to get on top of the mountain Machupicchu!! And as you can see on the pictures we are talking of old, uneven steep stairs! 🤗 The least to say is that it was fun :-) #stairs #stairwaytoheaven #ironlegs #sexyass #keepclimbing #machupicchu #machupicchumountain #cuzco #cusco #incas #inca #peru #southamerica #wandering #wanderlust #weirdosabroad #travellingtheworld #travel #travelcouple (at Machupicchu, Cusco, Peru) https://www.instagram.com/p/BtUDlVaFNwr/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1kbfv9tcjvpbg

Chocolate in the making, part 2 🍫, tempering the chocolate. -- Tempering chocolate is an essential step for making smooth, glossy, evenly colored coating for your dipped chocolates. Tempering prevents the dull grayish color and waxy texture that happens when the cocoa fat separates out. Tempered chocolate produces a crisp, shiny looking chocolate. -- #weirdosabroad #chocolatefactory #chocolate #chocolatetempering #tempering #cusco #cuzco #peru #traveltheglobe #chocolateclass #traveltheglobe #traveltheworld #southamerica #learningeveryday -- www.weirdosabroad.com (at Cusco, Peru) https://www.instagram.com/p/BtPG2IqlaPL/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=zkbhilwj94z4

The bubbling mud pots in Sol de Mañana. This is a geothermal area that sits at 5000m in South Bolivia. It is complete with bubbling mud pots (as seen in the video), geysers, and the acrid smell of sulfur. Not the most human friendly environment but definitely pretty. It is still open to explore and.get.close to the small openings. The soil is thin in places, so one has to be careful when navigating through the sulfur, steam pools and mud pots. #soldemanana #potosi #bolivia #southamerica #travelling #traveltheglobe #geyser #bubblingmud (at Sol De La Mañana, Potosi, Bolivia) https://www.instagram.com/p/Br9CghdlOjC/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1m6lr780mc07y
