Huacachina, Peru

My next stop was at the tiny oasis town called Huacachina. I could walk around town in under 5 minutes, so there wasn't much else to do than jump in a sand buggy, tear around the dunes and try my hand at sand boarding.

I knew I was in for a wild ride when the buggy that arrived had leaf springs front and rear, not to mention a driver with a crazed look in his eye, but it was great fun. I'm pretty certain I will be finding sand in my hair for the remaining three and a half months of my journey, the perils of letting my hair grow long.
