Top Ten Most Memorable Experiences in Peru

Teaching English to the workers and forging some amazing relationships
Getting locked out of our house and becoming a neighborhood spectacle (this is our neighborhood on a good day)
Amazon Jungle trip
10-day Huayhuash hiking trip through the Andes, though it wasn't always fun
Going to Paracas and Islas Ballestas with my mom and sister (though Carrie got really sick)
Every visit (4) to Machu Picchu and Cusco - I hope we'll get to go again
Having and raising Maximo here
Traveling to Cuba, Argentina and Colombia(I know that this is not Peru, but living here made it easier to go)
Language School with home stay in Arequipa then traveling to the Colca Canyon
Social gatherings with friends - Halloween parties, Game Nights, Galas, Despedidas, Dinners... (I know these events make us seem all glam, but most nights I'm in bed by 9. These events are spread out over four years.)

Who are Los Lemleys?

Los Lemleys are John, Julie, Maximo and Lola. We're currently living on Rokko Island in Kobe, Japan. Here we write about our happenings and share photos of our life abroad.

We started blogging in 2007 when we had to keep family and friends updated on what was going on with our premature baby.

Over a year later, we transitioned from the Lo Maximo blog to Los Lemleys where you'll find vignettes of our lives as we travel, move, teach, and raise our third culture kids.

Disclaimer: This is NOT a cultural or literary masterpiece, nor is it intended to be. It's a way for us to document our adventures for our family and friends. It'll hopefully be something Maximo & Lola can look back on, since their baby book is a bit bare and she only has a meager folder with ultrasound photos and a legal document or two.
