A Full Guide is Coming!
Yes, this website will be a full guide to travel in Northern Peru. I plan to have the site ready no later than the end of March, 2025. In the meantime, check out my historical travelogue about the region.
About the Book
Following Ghosts in Northern Peru is the story of the long-forgotten Moyobamba Route, once the main connection between Peru's Pacific coast and the Amazon River. Among the adventurers who rode the old mule trails in the 19th and early 20th century were a Royal Navy lieutenant, a Swiss nobleman, a French reporter, an American professor, and a famous early British aviator. This volume weaves together stories from historic travelers and characters from Peruvian history with my own adventures as I journeyed in the travelers' ghostly footsteps across northern Peru in 2017.
