Will Southard:

Reading Peru: From Machu Picchu to Cusco... opened the door for my husband and I to see ourselves going there. Claudia's engaging style, survival tips and smart links all add up to an invitation to enter the country. They help you draw a mental map and let your taste buds and imaginations fly. Her candor, such as describing the difficulties of trekking the Andean Highlands and the personal touches of their Homestay, provide a close inspection that traditional guide books don't!
