Cool Emily, great you have decided. I thought about Peru too for this year, but my partner and I want to visit the Galapagos Islands next year, so we now plan to combine the visits then. I am now thinking about going to India, but please let me know how you get on in Peru and good luck!

Did you receive my last comment? I am in the UK now, but looking at CCs from time to time, so if you have more questions fire away. Enjoy your weekend.

Hi again Emily and thanks for adding me to your friends. I would be happy to share more with you and even to call you on skype, which costs nothing. I actually live in France, but if you email me on david@basey.net, I will respond, it may not be immediatley because I am going to England next week, but as soon as I can. BTW I am thinking about Peru or India next!
