That's wonderful! Whereabouts are you traveling, if you don't mind me asking? I was mostly in the north around Trujillo, but I spent a couple weeks in Lima once, and a month in and around Cusco when I made the trek to Aguas Calientes, then Machu Picchu.

I've been itching to get back to Perú ever since!

I lived in Perú for a while on a study abroad/student exchange program and can confirm -- you can't swing a cat in Perú without hitting some archeological wonder, and it's not just Lima. I spent some time in the northern deserts, up near Chiclayo and Lambayeque, and visited so many fantastic Moche sites that they almost started to get boring by the end.

What stuck with me the most, however, as walking through the sand dunes and literally tripping over ancient pottery that was just sitting in the sand, partially exposed. Ceramics were everywhere, and it was otherwise untouched but also unprotected. Absolutely blew my mind as an American to whom anything older than 200 years feels ancient and rare.

Wonderful country, Perú. I highly recommend a visit to anyone who has the opportunity to go. There's so much more than Machu Picchu (although that site is a stunning must-see, ofc).

Honest question from someone ignorant on this topic -- what do you recommend for a search engine other than Google?

 
[–] nineninenine@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

What do you think so far? I've been loving Strange New Worlds!

[–] nineninenine@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Came back to this thread to say I LOVE Strange New Worlds so far! I liked Picard well enough, but just couldn't get into Discovery after a couple tries, though I can't articulate why (???). SNW seems to hit just right.

 

I know it's nearly impossible to pick a favorite Futurama episode, but if you held a ray gun to my head and I HAD to choose it would be Parasites Lost. When I saw "Parasites Regained" in the episode title list for season 11 the hype for new Futurama finally hit me!

So which episode are you most anticipating? Wild speculation about the episodes welcome.

Edited: to add a shameless plug for the Community I just created for another great Groening show, Disenchantment. If you're a fan of Bean and the gang come on over to /c/Disenchantment!

Not OP but you just convinced me to give Strange New Worlds a try, so thanks!

[–] nineninenine@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Same. I was 9 years 10 months deep into Reddit, just shy of putting in a dime, all through RiF, and I'll miss some of the super niche communities I found there.
