There is an amazing sight to behold in the Colca Valley.
Aside from the incredible landscapes, there is something else to steal your gaze.

ARO – An Oasis in the Desert
What do you do when you find yourself in the arid foothills of the Limeñan Andes?
You enter into an oasis full of tropical plants and cool water that will make you forget all about the desert (and the grey skies of Lima)!
ARO (Alojamientos y Recreo Romero) is located in Chosica, about a 45 minute drive from Lima (well, the district of Santiago de Surco) along the Carretera Central.
Bookmarked // May
Even though this week has mainly been grey and cold, today has shown signs that a little summer is still here in Lima with its beautiful blue sky and fierce sunshine. I sit typing with a G&T in hand, just as any English citizen would be when the temperature passes 17 degrees! Our dogs are out on the terrace, basking in the rays and sleeping a lot, which is just what you want on a lazy Sunday afternoon.
This month I have been excitedly planning our winter holiday, which may be including a trip to the happiest place in the world (erm…thats Disney World), and therefore I have reverted to being a child at the prospect of this! I may have watched three Disney films already this week….
What else has been happening this month you ask? Well, let’s take a look at some of the awesomeness that Lima had to offer in May.
