Saying Machu Picchu Wrong All Along: Unveiling the Truth

Travel with me as we hike the Lares Trek to Machu Picchu in Peru, South America. There will be highs and lows I struggle with the altitude and realize I've been saying Machu Picchu wrong this whole time...and you probably have been too. You'll never believe what you've actually been calling this sacred place.

Who's been saying Machu Picchu wrong this entire time? 😬

[@davidcattin7006]

Dang! I pride myself on proper pronunciation-- in several languages. The double c, being rare in Spanish, I always just ignored it, and pronounced it as if it was only a single c. Thanks! Regards from Peru (Yes, PERU!) Indiana!

The best video of Machu Picchu. Thank you very much! Beautiful! Excellent work.

[@hopscotchtheglobe]

Thanks you so much Juan! It's such a beautiful place.

It makes me so happy you enjoyed it. This was such a great trip. Have you been thinking of going to Peru?

[@megb7491]

We've been to Chile but I don't know if I'm up to the hiking anymore for Machu Picchu......You made it seem like I was there though !

[@hopscotchtheglobe]

Well that makes me happy :) ya hiking high altitude takes a lot out of you

[@BanshanMarwein]

I’m planning to trek to Machu Picchu in 2024. What time of year did you go? The sky looked so clear for you.

[@hopscotchtheglobe]

I went end of September and it was great!

[@WhereIam_]

[@hopscotchtheglobe]

Such s beautiful place.

[@svetlacavaleri7071]

What a magical place, definitely on my list! Just curious, did the food provided by the organizer have plant based options? Thanks again for sharing:)

[@hopscotchtheglobe]

Yes! They can work with any dietary needs! And everything is delicious

[@svetlacavaleri7071]

@@hopscotchtheglobe that's amazing thank you!❤

[@hopscotchtheglobe]

You're very welcome!

[@TravelbyDartTV]

It's like nature's stairmaster-the steps give you a cardio workout and a history lesson all in one. But I agree, that view is indeed so relaxing! I'm going more inspired to visit this very soon and hopefully, my travel dart would allow me experience this!

[@hopscotchtheglobe]

I love that! It's definitely the best workout. Absolutely go!!! I can't recommend it enough really

[@yvonneandbeyond]

LOVE seeing you + Dane & Stacey on this trekking adventure!!! So fun and inspiring. 💚

[@hopscotchtheglobe]

Those two are great energy! It was such an awesome time. I wanna do it again...and again...and again

[@yvonneandbeyond]

I've been watching both of your channels for years,@@hopscotchtheglobe! So cool to see your paths merge. Maybe you'll hike with them again in NZ sometime! ☺🌿

[@hopscotchtheglobe]

I would love that! I haven't been to NZ yet and it's so high up on my list

[@yvonneandbeyond]

Hope you can make your way over there sometime, but I'm excited to follow along with your adventures wherever they take you,@@hopscotchtheglobe! :)

[@hopscotchtheglobe]

💚💚💚

[@Lhouse810]

Yes I've been saying it wrong the whole time....and will probably continue to. What a beautiful place! How does cacao tea help with the high altitude? Just wondering

[@hopscotchtheglobe]

It has medicinal properties that help with altitude, headaches, sore throats, stomach issues and low energy levels. I'm not sure exactly why it works but I know from experience it does for all these things and the Andean people have been using these leaves forever.

[@HILARIOUS10]

I should comment quickly to be the first😂😂

[@hopscotchtheglobe]

Woo hoo!

[@davidcattin7006]

How do you pronounce QUINOA? Hint: this is a Spanish word, not Quechua.

[@Speediesnippets]

I second ✌️

[@hopscotchtheglobe]

Third!
