Elevation of Spirit: Machu Picchu, the Sacred Valley, and a Tribute to Family
When we travel, we seek more than just sights; we seek experiences that elevate our spirits. Our Peruvian adventure was precisely that—a transformative journey through the culinary heights of Lima, the serenity of the Sacred Valley, and the majesty of Machu Picchu. Yet, this trip was imbued with a bittersweet note as it coincided with a family milestone back home—my son’s first steps—witnessed not by us, but by my late mother. Her joy in those moments became a cherished memory that outshone even the most extraordinary wonders of Peru. – The Opulent Explorer
