We got the day bus from Lima to Trujillo about 10 hours and the bus was amazing it was VIP better than Business Class in a plane. We got fed and there were amazing recliners. Straight away from Trujillo we got a taxi to Huanchaco which is a small fishing/surfing village about 12kms away.
We just picked any hostel form the Lonley Planet and turned out to be a beauty
. Only $40 soles a night for a great room with own bathroom. The owner is a very eccentric Scotsman. Great place to meet people. Kinda not much to do in this town especially if there is no surf (which there isn“t at the moment) so we are thinking of heading more north to warmer weather and nicer beaches.
Back to the beach!!
