Our Life in Lima, Peru (Behind The Scenes Vlog) 🇵🇪 + Changing Our Travel Plans Completely! 🌟

Подробнее о видео

This video is a collection of little moments of our daily life in Lima, Peru. Whenever we visit, we get into a nice routine of daily walks along the coast, meals with family, and fun outing to try new restaurants. This is a little compilation of that from our 3-week visit. In this video we'll also sit down and chat about our change in plans; originally we had planned to get out of the capital and explore a few destinations in Peru, but we arrived during a bit of an unstable time marked by protests, curfew orders and changing regulations. So, things didn't quite go to plan, but I'd say we made the most of it and we actually had a really good time in Lima, Peru. This is also our last video from Peru for now, so we hope you enjoy it.

🌟 Life Update from Lima, Peru! 🇵🇪 Travel Plans Gone Sideways & New Adventures 🌟

Join us for a casual sit-down as we share an update from our recent stay in Lima, Peru, where flexibility became the theme of our trip.
