Cusco Travel Forum

I am going to Peru for 2 months commencing October and have arranged a language school and a volunteer project for the 2nd month. I have 2 questions:

1. I am a keen cyclist and do not want to lose my fitness during the stay. last year I took my mountain bike to Panajachel, Guatemala and this was fine but it proved to be quite expensive. This year I aim to either buy or hire a cycle for the duration and hopefully find a group with whom to ride. Any comments or ideas on this would be appreciated.

2. I am in a quandary about whether to take a lap top. I realise there are plenty of internet cafes but ideally I would like to hook into wireless connection. Is this achievable?

thanks

2. Bring your laptop; most of the cafes have wi-fi connections, if not, bring your RJ45 cable and plug it to a regular internet cabin. This cabins charge 2 soles per hour=USD0.70 per hour.

You can have wireless connection only in some hotels and you can practice cycling at the cycling assocation (it is very cheap).

If you have any question, send it to me (i am peruvian)
