From the jungle to the desert

Actually we planned to come to Peru and find a friendly town on the coast. Snow-capped mountains and jungle hit us a little by accident. With glaring green jungle arrive on dry coast. Specific ocean currents and winds make it look like here in the desert. Sand, stones and dust, and of occasional tree - watered daily by not withered. But there are also advantages - there is a lot of worms, and the air is dry as opposed to moist eternally jungle. From the windows of the bus all look like a makeshift hut. Wow! Curious we are, where we live!
We chose the town Pacasmayo - in total we do not know exactly why. It seemed to us quite interesting. However, the village on the way to Pacasmayo do not make a good impression on us ...
