Synopsis: Berkeley renegades Kevin and Nancy escape to join
Tien, a near-yearlong veteran of a Lima NGO, and her housemate and
colleague Rachel, a temporary UK transplant, for a whirlwind two weeks
in Peru. Together they manage to cram in Andean adventures in and
around Cuzco, a brief journey into the jungle near Puerto Maldonado
and an ultra-compressed one-day Lake Titicaca visit, steering mostly
clear of altitude sickness, malaria, robbers, blatant scams and
perros bravos. Much hilarity ensues as the quartet luck into
some memorable guides, stumble upon blue food in the wild, unravel the
Vamos Vecino mystery... and strike gold.
