Huaraz, Peru, the game begins


Finally after more than 24 hours flying and 8 hours in a comfy bus, Simon and I arrived have arrived in Huaraz in the beautiful Cordillera Blanca range of Peru.
We staying in an amazing hostel with an incredible view of the mountains. Already we have concluded that there is too little time to try all the peaks we want to. At least we´ll sleep well on the plane home. To be honest home is a relative term. Simon and I are both considering buying real estate here in Huaraz. It is awesome here.
Simon is suffering from a badcase of HAFE (read his blog for more details http://www.thealpinist.blogspot.com/).
Good reliable psyched partners are hard to find. Its great to have Simon as a partner on this trip. Same sense of humor, same psyche, strong climber, funny as hell. Criteria satisfied.
The plan is to warm up and acclimatise on a few treks and easier peaks before getting amongst the bigger more serious stuff.
stay tuned.....
