they've been using this for hundreds of years
all right let's get a water on the side of the road
our second pink chicha ever this is a finger food only
we're alex and lindsey two travelers who are exploring south america
when suddenly strict lockdown began leaving us stuck abroad
we've been here for months and even though lockdown is lifted
things in peru are far from normal we're documenting the whole thing and sharing
it with you so now we're on our 15 minute walk into
town and we're gonna go to our new favorite place
there aren't a ton of cafes or restaurants open
right now but this one is great if you like videos like this if you like
traveling then make sure you hit that subscribe
button because we're traveling around the world
and we're sharing the whole thing with you and we'd love to have you join us
we love all the peruvian stuff all right it's nice yeah okay guys we just arrived
to our favorite place this place is called horno colonial
san francisco and they have a colonial oven here
really cool place so when you see this this basket
hanging out here that's where it is
all right we just got our lattes alex has a friend on his lap
and we ordered some lattes and made sure that we specified we wanted
coffee with milk because if you guys watched our last video
we accidentally somehow ended up with hot
steamed milk because they thought we said leyches instead of lattes
now we're careful when we order yeah it's always cafe latte
every time or cafe con nature uh so we have some
lattes here and they're pretty good last time we're here
but let's try it again
grass yes i should have filmed that so lindsay just ordered some mayonnaise
for her food yeah we pronounce it mayonnaise
in the us mayonnaise mayonnaise they never understand what i'm asking for
like at all say like four times so alex has to
chime in and help me out and it worked alright so what we have here for
breakfast is dos huevos fritas
polta pon papas so guys look we showed this in
another video but it was a while ago so if you haven't been
on the channel for a while this place has this colonial oven
they've been using this for probably hundreds of years
and it's really cool you see this long spatula looking thing
goes way out here and you'll see the guy putting
bread in and different meats and it's just awesome to see so yeah
this is a very cool place they can kind of customize your orders
get you what you want prices are good so we love it
look at this guys this means it's a chicharria and you can get chicho there
we're gonna do another chicha experience very soon maybe we'll go to one of these
all right we just hopped in a colectivo five solace
each to go about 20 minute drive we were gonna go on a different
collectible but they're gonna make us wait so they found seven more people and
that could have been a long time so luckily this one was already on their
way to cusco and the animal sanctuary is right on the way to brisbane
so we'll be there in like 15 minutes we're in a colectivo this is our first
one since we've been in peru a collective is basically a van
something that takes multiple people to wherever you want to go and it's kind of
a economical way to travel because it's cheaper than like a taxi or something
like that because you're splitting the costs with other people
so collectivo is a great way to go when you're getting to another city nearby
and but to take the collectives you want to have more time if you have to wait or
pick up people or stop so we're not in that big of a rush well
yeah actually so luckily it worked out for us that
this one was leaving the cusco and can drop us off on the way right
away this one was already on the road they were already kind of
going where they're going and they just got us
saying something out of the window but the other one we would have had to wait
probably for 20 minutes half an hour to get more people
we're here just showed up to the animal sanctuary
waiting for them to come to the door hopefully they actually open it up for
us i hope they do because we're in the
middle of nowhere on the side of a road
this is pretty cool they basically open this up just for us
they don't have it open during covet but we get this whole place to ourselves
we get to see all these animals up close with no lines
wow look at this this is a vikkunya we're finally going to learn up close
the difference between vicuna alpaca and llama
look at those eyes
oh yeah oh this deer just came right up to us
oh yeah yeah
wow hi baby
so now we're going to see some bears or not even really sure what they are but
they look like bears
it's called oso and dino it's in andy and bear
their faces look a lot different than the bears that we've seen
yeah they look so much like bears when they're walking around but their faces
it's a mate that's the closest i've ever been to a bear
we were like 10 feet away yeah
so these are the animals they're the ones that poop and then you use that
poop to make a really good super expensive coffee i didn't know
these these are them and he's trying to sniff through this hole
as you can see from the missing eyes and the injuries
a lot of these animals they are mistreated or they are injured in the
wild and so this is a sanctuary to take in
animals that really need a place to stay and be safe
now i've never seen one that's beautiful
hola
mr potato head
lama okay
just tried to spit on my camera so the guy who works here is telling us
that the vicuna are not domesticated but they have llamas and alpacas that are
so we're not allowed to go in the cage with them
no no hello so that was an indian mountain cat and now we're going up to
see a puma
there's a puma over here but he's hiding you can't really see him
now we're gonna see some condors
so you can't always tell on camera how big things are like this
but when it spreads its wings it's three meters wow
look how big this feather is so condors are monogamous
so they have one partner for their whole life
and condors can live to be like 80 years
old
into the sound when they when they fly
when it flies over you you feel the gust of wind as it goes over and you get a
feeling for just how big they are
look at him he's like
you can hear him
all right so we got to see the animal sanctuary in a unique kind of boy
the guy who's working there didn't know a lick of english so
we did our best to figure it out i think we missed a lot of information
but it was pretty cool at least they're helping animals they're a sanctuary for
animals that need help usually i don't like we both don't
really like seeing animals in cages but these ones i think they need to be
because they were injured they wouldn't survive without it so i
think it is a good thing that they're here uh it was cool seeing
condors because peru is obsessed with condors it's kind of
like in the u.s we're all about the bald eagle
and i feel like here it's the condor we saw a condor from very far away
but it was a much different experience seeing it up close
that was pretty cool we have a new appreciation for condors because they
are huge you probably still can't tell on
camera but it's amazing they're endangered so there's
not that many of them left so it's good that the sanctuary is protecting them
end of that experience we're going to go back into town now back in a psac
and we don't really have plans so we'll show you
where the day takes us yeah let's see if we can find
now we're like in the middle of nowhere now we're on a highway here
and we have to find a colectivo or somebody to hitchhike without them
all right let's get a water on the side of the road the shop
is on one of those bicycle carts so when she's done for the day she can just ride
um
that lady was nice so we got a few candies from her as well
there are 10 centinos centimos there's like 10 cents of a sole so not
much chicha marada
doesn't really taste like chicha marana and now
there's just this little town right here off the side of the road on the highway
we thought we'd go for a little walk and see what we find
hopefully there's a chicharia where we could stop and get some corn beer
look at this there's some chickens under the bridge here
okay
guys look at the names of things here like the names of towns and cities
quechua is not easy possibly but look at all
those seas so we decided we're enjoying this little
walk along the highway here there are cool little towns and and
animals and all these things everywhere to look at so
we're gonna walk a little more instead of grabbing a collectivo
just yet what is this
car wash
so we found this place on the side of the road it's strawberry chicho which is
our favorite and we're gonna go sit down
over there and enjoy it a fermented corn beer
and when it's pink it's made with strawberry
all right so this is the yard we're gonna sit on one of these tables and eat
or drink
this is our second pink chicha ever so made with strawberry the taste is
much different
wow it makes it much sweeter odd flavor we're not really used to
chicha uh where we come from
we have this view from the restaurant okay so river here
there are a couple picture frames over here do you guys know what that is
and then up here there are a couple of boxes which could be for bees or
birds or birds we don't know what to ask in our bad spanish
look at them doing laundry over here
oh wow
so this is our chicharron plate it has some mint some papas some
chicharron and some mole which is these pieces of corn
when you get the chicharron plate on the side of the road a plateau
it's always kind of similar you have kind of a salad even though that changes
a bit mole
and they don't give you silverware this is a finger food only
so eat it with your hands
potatoes are always great so that was pretty cool
we found our chicha although it was a non-alcoholic chicha this time
so yeah we've had chicha a handful of times and a few times it seems like it
was supposed to have alcohol and a couple times
they did not have alcohol maybe you guys can tell us
is there a way you know when they're gonna have alcohol and when they're not
or it's just a 50 50 chance that it will or it won't
or is it just these chicharrias that serve
non-alcoholic no say
there are eucalyptus trees in this grove for a long
so you know when you found a eucalyptus plant because the leaves are kind of
like this light green color it's really pretty
like grass look at the yellowness eucalypto
more greenish blue
so we just hopped in a collective just solely each to get back to pisac because
we walk so to sit by each much
so we just got back after a long day and we just moved into a new place
at wolf totem this over here that's called the dream villa it's the best one
yet so we've been working a lot so during
this time in pisac we're trying to take some time to relax
while still making videos so we put together a little
wine cracker cheese and fruit night it's called the i i can't pronounce this
word chakuteri board i think it's a kuturi yeah
board yeah a french thing yeah so yeah we
have some wine some crackers a couple different types of crackers and
chips blueberries grapes most stuff came from the local
market so we're gonna enjoy this and take a
look at this drone shot so you can see where we are
when it flies over you you get a gust of wind let's try it again oh i
have some cat hair in my drink so that was very cool we have a
new um jeez yeah that was pretty cool we have a
new appreciation for hey guys we can only do so much on
