Kudos to Travis & Sam for planning a perfect Peru Welcome Party!  We arrived to this amazing mansion overlooking Cusco and of course a llama was chillin’ and waiting to greet us.  (Cuz, llamas are a thing here)  And the path was lit by torches.  Check out the video of our grand entrance:  

The mansion had an incredible view...

...a draw bridge...

...impressive rooms with Peruvian decor...

...a church adjacent to the house...

...a sweet little fire pit...

...etc.  

All great vibes at the party last night!  (Except when that local guy tried to steal Heather’s phone, YIKES)

Mucho bailar anoche!  (Much dancing last night)  

Here's a video of the dance floor jamming with one of my favorite songs - “One More Time” by Daft Punk

Unfortunately, the party included a “going away” for 3 of our fellow Remotes: technically 2 and a half Aussies.  Tom(Mountain Climbing Buddy), Tanya and Lisa are leaving Remote Year for various reasons…

...and they will be sorely missed.  

But, everyone has a path in life.  And, everyone has to follow their heart.  

Our group is down from 70 to 66 now.  But, Candice, Tom, Tanya & Lisa will be with us in spirit.
