Post-Peru Reflections

Peru Post-Trip Blues, Surf Retreat Highlights, and Planning Japan 2028Joy and Claire recap travel and post-trip depression after Peru, including Claire extending her trip for a Peru surf retreat in Chiama with Surf with Amigas, riding unusually long left waves, visiting archaeological sites, and seeing the preserved “Lady of Cao.” They describe a stressful Cusco-to-Lima flight delay due to the plane being too heavy, resulting in many bags left behind, and praise guide Leo for getting everyone’s luggage recovered before flights home. They discuss planning a Go Ahead Tours Japan trip for May 2028, outline the “Japan for Women” itinerary, and how they’ll share signup info. Back home, Joy starts a new job at Headspace as director of therapy, Scott also gets promoted, and they plan to puppy-raise again by taking over a six-month-old yellow lab named McCoy after turning in Lilas.03:15 Not Saving Memories03:47 Trip Photos Exception04:42 Peru Travel Day06:37 Surf Retreat Highlights07:31 Peru History Shock08:21 Pisco Sour Hangover11:24 Lost Luggage Drama15:33 Post Trip Blues18:05 Japan 2028 Tease20:50 Back to Work Updates22:13 Puppy Raising Again23:46 Meet McCoy24:25 Collar Scholars Week26:10 Dogs Want Dinner26:41 Summer Schedule Chaos28:36 Trips And Concerts29:21 Dean Potter Doc33:58 Van Life Reality Check36:15 Gym Pricing Rant40:22 Garage Gym Plans41:35 Wrap Up And Plugs
