HALL OF FAME OF PORK (III)


Lecherones, Huarocondo, Peru. This little town is outside Cuzco and is justly famous for its crispy-salty-juicy roast suckling pig. The guy posing next to the pork is Manuel, my excellent guide along the Ancascocha trail that extends from the Pomatales Canyon up into the Huayanay range and intersects the Inca Trail on its way to Machu Picchu.

Now THAT is the kind of pork you take home to introduce to the parents.
And, then eat the fuck out of in the guest room.

I feel like I should attempt to be sarcastically witty like the others but will stick to: I really enjoy your blog, you have a great sense of humor and adventure which is an incredibly sexy combination and I think the whole pig photo gets the prize!

Found you today and marveled at your life! What a crazy way to explore the world!
I am living vicariously through you now...as I am a mother of 6 year old twins, middle school teacher and ready to get out for the summer.
Looking forward to more~
