What happened in Peru

Sebas and I arrived in Lima, after a lot of hours flying. When we landed we realized something strange.. there were no trees. We joked that the only "green" thing in Lima was the bad air. After wandering through the city, we decided to take a bus to Arequipa, which was a bit calmer. There, we visited the Santa Catalina Monastery, an incredible place with cobblestone streets and colonial architecture that felt like it was from another time. It was a welcome break from the hustle of Lima. We sat in one of the courtyards, surrounded by vibrant colors, and laughed, thinking at least Arequipa had trees and cleaner air haha.

Sebas and I went to Ireland and started in Dublin, exploring Trinity College and the Temple Bar area. The pub we found was nice and had a lot of redheads. it felt like half the population was ginger. At the Cliffs of Moher, the views were amazing, the wind nearly knocked us off. In Galway, we went through colorful streets, dodging a group of loud knacker kids racing bikes with baseball bats, before trying some amazing local food. Ireland was as wild and charming as we’d hoped.

Rabat

Sebas and I were exploring Rabat when Sebas tried to speak Arabic to fit in and accidentally asked a local man for ilegal substances instead of directions. The locals stared at him, and I couldn’t stop laughing. Later, at the Hassan Tower, I tried to pose for other tourists pic on a stone wall, but they got angry and we had to run. The food was nice and the local shops were cheap, it was a nice experience and cheap

In Tokyo, Sebas and I explored Senso-ji Temple and went through Nakamise Street, soaking in the mix of tradition and modernity. After a quick visit to Akihabara’s tech scene, we ended the day at a drifting event. Watching cars sliding with precision, we ended driving a rented car in an illegal street race and we got chased by the cops Tokyo’s energy hits different

Sydney

Sebas and I went to Sydney last christmas, and we started the day exploring the Harbour Bridge and walking around Circular Quay, amazed by the views. After partying with some tourists, we decided to visit the Opera House at night. We were both still a bit drunk, sebas tried to act cool by trying a pose at the top of the stairs. But just as he did, he lost his balance and almost fell. We laughed so hard while trying to act like nothing happened. We ended the night hiking up a nearby mountain close to our hotel, enjoying the city lights from above.
