All of us at Latin America for Less wish you a Happy Holiday Season as we send you the December newsletter. If the cold weather up north is not enough incentive for a trip down to sunny Latin America, this newsletter offers a few more excuses for you to pack up your bags and head south of the equator. I recently found myself in the Amazonian jungle of Peru’s Puerto Maldonado and tried out some of the adventure activities offered there. I share my experience and highly recommend a visit to the Amazon for anyone needing a break from the hustle and bustle of modern life. As this trip was also the perfect opportunity to try out a new camera, I share some useful travel photography tips. This month’s recipe teaches you how to make Argentina’s legendary chimichurri sauce. Quick and easy to prepare, this sauce complements any meat! As some of you find yourselves wondering what to do for New Year’s Eve, we share what goes on in the Andean city of Cuzco. Our Cuzco manager, Cristina Daus, writes about some New Year’s customs from the city she now calls home. To conclude, we share a letter and photos sent to us by clients detailing their experience in Peru. We hope that you enjoy this newsletter and that it sparks your interest to learning more about travel in Latin America.
