We still don't know what caused it, but it may have been the sample of (unpasteurized) cheese at the market. And the worst part is, it wasn't even good cheese! Uff. And i know what you mean about dreading going back in that sense. When we went to Colombia, Bogota smelled just Luke Cusco and we wanted to gag :/ I feel your pain!

I went to Peru fall 2010 for 6 weeks and got salmonella poisoning TWICE; at the beginning and end of my trip. AND I missed my 4-day Inca Trail Trek too, $400 down the drain. I didn't even eat anything iffy and now I'm scared of eating the food in Cusco for when I do go back. Hahaha............ Somehow I came across your sight from a google search and it was like deja vu.

We bought World Nomads insurance (http://www.worldnomads.com/) which has served us really well through our travels. They were amazing and professional to work with during our GI nightmare! Like you thought, it covers medical aid and trip reimbursements. They have a couple types of policies -- one is general, the other is more activity-based -- so I suggest checking out both and also checking on minimum time requirements because we bought ours for six-month stretches. Let us know if you have any other questions! Good luck! Hi there! We bought World Nomads insurance (http://www.worldnomads.com/) which has served us really well through our travels.

Reading a sad account of the GI infection and missing the Machu Picchu made us wonder if we should get insurance too. What insurance did you purchase for the trip? Is it an umbrella insurance that covers medical aid + trip reimbursements like that for the hike? Thanks. Hi guys, my wife and I, with another couple are making a trip to Peru in September.

You're right, everything happens for a reason and I'm glad the two of you are together and have each other. By the way, love the pictures! Looking forward to reading the next post. Take care, Love, Prianka/Minty Archie & Eaman,
