Thank for sharing an amazing video capturing all the most beautiful view in your adventures to Machu Picchu. How bad was your symptoms when you get sick and what did you do in order to feel better?

Thanks for watching! I got pretty bad altitude sickness both times I've been in Peru. Symptoms: fainting, breathlessness, extreme fatigue, sleepiness, nausea, loss of appetite, headache, slowed bowel movements lol Remedies: sleep, taking it really slow and easy, eating light meals, hydratation, taking attitude pills, practicing deep breaths Good luck if you plan on going! Make sure you give yourself time to acclimate before starting strenuous activities 😊

Wow! I will definitely pay for this kind of trek. Amazing view and you can really feel the nature. I am sorry but I feel dizzy watching your vlog. Hopefully next time you may consider using a stabilizer.
