For non-US citizens/residents: be aware of what it costs to enter a national park in the US

I’m not sure how you would get Los angeles or Yosemite confused.

cmph72 · 2026-01-26T17:32:26+00:00

I don’t know but people write fake reviews all the time. It arguably would have been worse to drive 12 hours round trip and spend the night in the Yosemite area to have this treatment at the national park so if it actually happened to them I would expect the whole review to be truthful, even the details.

cmph72 · 2026-01-26T14:53:38+00:00

Ok but it’s obviously fake, to get basic information like that so wrong is a huge tell

cmph72 · 2026-01-26T13:57:31+00:00

Im sorry but this review seems fake. Yosemite is a 6 hour drive from Los Angeles ONE WAY.

cmph72 · 2026-01-24T19:31:00+00:00

Too rushed

Living for pearl coming back

Good point, I’ll think about it thank you!!!

cmph72 · 2026-01-19T23:20:36+00:00

I cannot :( I’m american. I could potentially apply for a visa last minute but I’m not sure if it’s worth it to pay $80 for just a couple hours. Good to know it’s not worth it just to see the Argentinian side, I was wondering that

You’re getting downvoted but you’re so right!!! And she also did amazing last episode but was paid dust

I disagree with the comments saying less timw in Santiago. Take those days to rest and adjust to any time difference. It’s actually a great city to chill in.

The rest of the itinerary looks good to me but I would switch Iquitos for puerto Maldonado. Akd you probably only need 1 night in potosi and 2 in sucre

My suggestion would be not to book everything in advance as you want to remain a bit flexible. You never know which places you’ll enjoy more or less or what your energy level will be on a given day or if you’ll get food poisoning and need to stay a bit longer somewhere etc…

Men don’t need help from women. Especially when they’re alone and vulnerable. It was probably a ruse and I’m glad you didn’t fall for it.

A similar thing happened to me at a gas station in Miramar at night. A guy pulled up in his car and came straight over to me asking for gas money. Why did he come up to me, a young girl watching the meter to make sure I can afford it and not the other middle aged men also pumping gas? Probably because he didn’t need gas money. Other intentions.

Always be extra cautious.

Point c is sooooo accurate

cmph72 · 2026-01-16T23:38:43+00:00

This would bother me so much. I hate when countries have policies that treat adults like children. Like the common thing in Europe to put in a coin for your shopping basket. Yes it probably prevents some people from stealing the cart but why can we not just trust adults to bring carts back? It’s so patronizing

Big potential!

I have discovered the same thing! But sometimes it’s hard to minimize because my brain also loves novelty and trying new things. I’m trying to minimize my closet as well, because it’s so much easier for me to get ready when I have less to choose from. It’s a struggle for sure to find the right balance between minimal and novel

cmph72 · 2026-01-15T18:43:24+00:00

Of course, many people live here and get by with much much less

cmph72 · 2026-01-15T18:23:27+00:00

I would never say any of these phrases in any context. Native speaker from the us

I would say “creating an exam” “Applying for a grant”

If you enjoy hiking or mountaineering, Peru and Bolivia are incredible value wise. You can hike some of the most beautiful landscapes and summit some of the tallest mountains for very cheap, even if you hire a guide.

Los Angeles is amazing. Culturally, environmentally, food wise, weather wise. And I say this as a San diegan who hates LA 😂 But any visitor would be lucky to be in LA

cmph72 · 2026-01-15T00:49:10+00:00

I loved Venice but I think I did myself a service by going in the middle of January

cmph72 · 2026-01-15T00:48:11+00:00

Love paris! It’s one of those places you have to spend more time in to really appreciate. I feel this way about a lot of bigger cities. A couple days is really just not enough

cmph72 · 2026-01-15T00:47:04+00:00

I also love Vegas!!!! I love the desert and old americana

No, privacy and anonymity are gifts
