On 25 June I drove from Tucson to Phoenix with my partner, as I will take off from Phoenix on 26 June to arrive at my first destination—Cuzco, Peru—on 27 June. Thankfully, the English Institute I will study has a well-organized, immersive program that offers excursions and additional safety courses during my stay.
Though I grew up so close to the AZ-Mexico border, I have never been to South America before. Thus, in many ways Cuzco is a destination that is a long time in the making for me as a traveler.
I will write to you all later this week!
Cheers,
MEG
