We Are Here

Peru – Arequipa

We travelled to Arequipa from Cusco. There is not much to do in Arequipa, but we managed to amuse ourselves for a couple of days.

First stop a Convent, Monasterio de Santa Catalina, it was huge, a city within a city. Apparently the nuns used to be a bit naughty, until a vicar turned up to sort them out.
