Where in the World?

Just in case you were wondering where this place called Peru is that we keep going on about and where that little cute brown bear who likes marmalade sandwiches comes from...
Where Peru is in South America...

And here is a map of Peru showing where we plan to move to: Arequipa (Ah-ree-key-pa) in the South of Peru (it's pointed to by the ever-so creative red arrow!)
This map is divided into the 3 main regions of Peru - the jungle, the mountains and the desert coast. Arequipa, as you can see is in the highland area at 2380 metres. Arequipa is about 14 hours bus ride from Lima, the capital (which can be found halfway up Peru on the west coast) and around 6 hours from Bolivia or Chile.
