We arrived in Lima late last night . Wayruros Backpackers hostel is sort of a casual affair, half outdoors, and graffit from previous guests on the walls - a majority of whom seem to be from Israel. Our room upstairs has about 4 bunks, 8 beds. The only occupants when we arrived last night were two men..one of which looked like he hadn´t planned on staying at the hostel, had just drunk too much and wrapped himself in towels. Also his mattress was covered in plastic so we assumed there might be a chance he´d stayed at Wayruros before and wet the bed. We were both too exhausted to mind much and slept really soundly albeit with our backpacks an arms reach away.

This morning, things were a lot brighter. We had delicious coffee and tea and fluffy rolls with jam and butter that the hostel provides, got some good advice from Dayro, the hostel do-everything teenager who´s English rocks and we´re discovering Lima by foot.

Too, phone is working now thanks to my wonderful father and a very calm and collected person at Verizon.
