In the desert
I did not think of desert when I thought Peru and a coastal desert felt even stranger. We have travelled by public coaches for two days now and have seen much desert, populated and desolate. They hug the coast, fish and irrigate from snowfall rivers. West of the Andes is an extreme rainshadow. The desert isn't stopping the development as we saw luxury appartments blocks and squallid villages, all literally rising from the sandy gravel. They get 1mm of rain here per year.
