Having a great time so far in Peru 🇵🇪.
The Peruvian people have been so nice and friendly! My Lima food tour was awesome and tried so many different flavors. Flew to Cusco this morning to walk this beautiful city, hang out with this llama🦙and try and acclimate to the elevation of 11,270 feet!
On my way to Machu Picchu tomorrow with an overnight in Aguacaliente!
Thanks for following along gang!

Hello all, welcome to the new “Passports and Penne”!
I’m so happy you’re here. As you may or may not know, I created this page to separate my design one from my food & travels
A little about yours truly, I’m a Fintech salesman by day, and obsessively thinks about where I can travel next and what cool thing can I eat once I’m there!
I’ve been to 41 countries, 6 continents and have a bucket list that I’m actually going to complete.
Some examples would be visiting all the Disney parks in the world, walking the Great Wall of China, visiting the opera house in Sydney, climb inside the great pyramid and take part of Hemingway days in Key West- all completed ✅
Still have plenty items left like-hitting all the continents in the world and I’m only one away from finishing or seeing the seven wonders of the world, only two away from accomplishing that!
I’m glad your here and I’m extremely happy to bring you all along on what I call “Virtual Field Trips”.
Let’s do this together!
P.S. the Portuguese phrase above me states “Are you doing what you love?”
