Hey Kim, nothing fancy, I just wear bug spray! Sorry I don’t have any special tips or tricks 🙂

Thanks!!

Haha, believe me, I’m quite the arachnophobe — it’s a miracle I was able to take those pictures at all!

Hey Sydney! Thank you for the kudos on this post! Nice work on nabbing some packing cubes. Unfortunately I can’t really weigh in on Manu — after getting excited about both Iquitos AND Puerto Maldonado and deciding I had to go to both, I definitely didn’t look into a third! Sorry about that 🙂

I love the hilarious packing posts. Thankfully I found some of those amazing packing cubes for way cheaper at Marshall’s!

As for the Amazon – I am going to Peru by myself for 3.5 weeks in June and I want to spend at least 7 days in the jungle. I’m going to add a choice to your Iquitos vs Puerto dichotomy – what about Manu?
