We have our very first guest interview on the podcast today! The first traveler that the guys behind Cachi Life got to meet while they were in Peru, Lindsey Carver.

Quickly after meeting Lindsey, she and her friend Joe, take them on their first Salsa dancing experience.

Lindsey covers her top three experiences in Peru including Machu Picchu, Rayan Community, and sandboarding the dune. She goes into detail about why Rayan was the most culturally rich experience while in Peru.

She talks about trying to tip her tour guide, Gloria, in Peru and why Gloria would not accept the tip.

Finally, Lindsey gives her top three tips from a traveler's standpoint on what people should bring with them when traveling to Peru. Be sure to listen to the end to hear her top three recommendations. There is a possibility that she recommends a niche cleanliness tip we have covered before.

There’s a lot more to Peru than the postcard-perfect snapshot of Machu Picchu. Peru Travel Podcast, brought to you by the team at Cachi Life, digs into the rich, layered, and sometimes surprising realities of traveling in this incredible country. Each episode feels like a casual, informative chat with friends who know the terrain intimately. You’ll hear firsthand stories from the winding streets of Lima and the high-altitude markets of Cusco to the quiet corners of the Amazon, all focused on giving you a deeper, more respectful understanding of your destination. This isn't just a checklist of attractions; it's about the textures of daily life, the nuances of local customs, and practical advice that goes beyond the guidebook. We talk about the small moments that make a trip memorable-the taste of a dish you can’t pronounce, the feeling of arriving somewhere entirely new, and the simple dos and don'ts that help you connect. Tuning into this podcast is like getting a thoughtful, pre-trip briefing from someone who wants you to have an authentic and smooth experience. Whether you're deep in planning or just dreaming of future adventures, these conversations aim to prepare you not just logistically, but culturally, for everything Peru has to offer.
