Cycling in Lima

This summer I'm turning back to sports. Despite of many bad experiences I left them a long time. Now I restart my summer cycling, running, swimming and playing basketball (my first game of the year is this wednesday). I'm also looking for boxing academies so I promise to take photos when I find one. But this post is about cycling . From my experience I think the safe route and the more panoramic view is going over the sea by the Costa Verde or by the waterfront until chorrillos, exactely stopping in Agua Dulce and turning back because the place is kind of dangerous (too much traffic and bad-faces people). Although is ok if you are in group. In this route you will see the amazing sundown, the beach, the Maria Reiche park wich is like a hidden treassure and many people making sports so you won't feel alone. I took some photos of the skate park in San Isidro but I just could rescue one =( . There's also a circuit for bikes. Next time I'll take photos of the park and the sunset. I'll show you in my next post.

Ayahuasca - Pisco Bar

On of my favorite places in Barranco is Ayahuasca, a bar that has a wide variety of drinks based on pisco (pisco =peruvian liquor). I also like the place because the atmosphere, it's always so full of people and energy. The entrance wich is componed by the balcony and stairs is made of wood. The time I was there with an italian friend he made me realize how much we are careless about we peruvians have. For example, I was smoking my cigarette and he ask me to be carefull about the wood, I notice he apreciated too much the balcony, then he told he didn't have places in his town decorated so beautiful with wood because in Italia they don't have much wood. I recommend you to go to Ayahuasca in Barranco to have a nice talk and enjoy the nightlife in Barranco as you drink your special pisco coctel. They do not prepare the typical pisco sour, the have a lot of sours mixing peruvian fruits with piscco. But for the non-pisco-lovers they also sell another drinks. Hope you like the drinks as much as I love them =) . They also sell some food if you feel hungry and that food is perfect to pair with their pisco coctails.

Frogurt - Frozen Yogurt and New Concept

Hi,

Today I'm going to talk about a new place I've recently met. It's called Frogurt and it's like a light icecream shop. They say the icecream is in fact frozen yogurt (but there's also chocolate), it has 0 fats and only 84 calories for each 100 grs which is a normal ration. I ate 300 grs although and I didn't feel it heavy at all. In Lima this is a new concept on icecream shops because you can serve yourself as much as you want and put the toppings or fruits you want and then you pay the weight, awsome!!. I love this place and I found out some photos in facebook, hope you like it too.

Dubal - Latin Disco

Last week I met a friend I haven't seen in a long time. It was a day before New Year's Eve so we decided to warm up for parties in tour over bars and discos in Miraflores. Unfortunately, the majority of them were closed or almost empty  =(  they didn't look so cool to take photos. From all the places we visit there was only one I haven't post yet and worth to it, the other ones suck in better case that day they were a shit. So, the winner is named Dubal a latin disco in Miraflores. It has lounge style, better beers than drinks, nice girls, ugly men, latin music, regaetton and salsa all them perfect  to dance. Not so big but enought to make the party. I've heard by a girl from my job you can have a great time in that club, you can also find a girlfriend, my co-worker did. Those girls seem to be friendly so go ahead and flirt. If you are girl I saw some men (not recommended) looking for girls. However, my opinions are mostly based on what I've heard because the day I chose to go was kind of poor.

Here the photos:

Of course in this video it looks amazing:
