This summer I also had the opportunity to visit Peru and one of the most amazing lakes I have ever seen. What makes this Lake amazing is the beautiful views and all the culture that it holds. It is the highest navigable lake in the world and although I got altitude sickness, it was worth the visit... #endlessSummer
