Two Days in Huanchaco

written by Brenna Holeman September 22, 2012
 
Huanchaco, Peru
It’s a place where reed boats line the beach, where the sun sets like a ball of fire, where the beer flows freely and the plates of ceviche are piled high, where even the kittens do little more than sleep. Huanchaco was the perfect place for us to stop for a few days in between Mancora and Lima, which is an 18-hour bus journey otherwise. We’ve spent the past two days sitting by the water and talking with surfers, drinking sweet lattes and watching the waves; and what more could we possibly want to do in a place like this? It’s a place to relax, Huanchaco.

It’s rainy here in Paris, I’m back to uni(which I don’t like), and my favourite season just ended. I haven’t travelled in over a month.
This posts makes me feel much better!

Antastesia – Aw, thank you! I hope the sun shines in Paris soon…

About Me

About Me

Hi, I'm Brenna

My name is Brenna Holeman and I drink a lot of whisky. No, wait. That’s not how I want to start. After travelling to more than 100 countries over the past 15 years, many of them solo, I tend to write about travel a lot, but I write about other things, too: getting dumped, buying way too much jewellery, and yeah, OK, whisky (none of those things are related, I swear). You’ll find a mix of advice, opinion pieces, and stories on this blog, but either way, I hope to make you want to read more. And up next? I'm about to become a single mom to a beautiful baby boy, the biggest solo adventure I've ever been on. For more about me and what you'll find on This Battered Suitcase, click here .

INSPIRATION

Our battered suitcases were piled on the sidewalk again; we had longer ways to go. But no matter, the road is life." - Jack Kerouac

About Brenna

This Battered Suitcase is not only about the where and the how of travel, it's about the who and the why.

Originally from Canada, all I've ever wanted to do is travel. After eleven years of solo travel and over 90 countries, I'm currently living in London and fulfilling my other dream of becoming a writer. If I'm not travelling, I'm writing about it, either for my blog, my job, or my book. I firmly believe there is adventure everywhere, so long as you keep your eyes (and your mind, and your heart) open. Join me as I continue to look for these adventures. Hopefully you'll find your own, too.
