Oct. 21, 2005 It is a great place to visit or retire. It is one of the better places in Peru to retire; and of most places I´ve been to, this would be the most economic, peaceful, and warm places in the world; yes, I said world. And I´ve traveled around it 26-times. There are no movie stars here, or big bands, or McDonalds, or KFC, or Pizza Huts, and I hope they never come; why spoil a good thing. And keep all the American goofballs out of here likewise. Food is cheap, rent is cheap, and they got a great hospital in this 325,000 inhabited city. It is as busy on any week day as Times Square. Cars and gas are expensive, but then it is everywhere nowadays. The Peruvian people are too trusting, too warm and too generous up in this region. But they are learning, hope they do not pick up all the bad habits of Lima, and the United States. It has its Sunday market, and all the vendors with their assortment of foods. Traveling out of Huancayo to other destinations is not hard; such as, going to Cuzco (Machu Picchu) or down the road to Laguna de Paca (an hour from Huancayo), a beautiful lake nearby with its full moon, and enchainting scenery. Thus, if a retired American cannot live here with their little Social Security, they can’t live anywhere else in the world cheaper, plus get the benefits of the Peruvian culture, climate and scenery; not to mention again, the great food variety. Note: I´m presently back in Peru, visiting Lima, the Mantaro Valley, Huancayo, Colombia. ------------ About the author: Mr. Siluk is a world traveler, a lover of the mysteries around the world, and has visit many World Heritage Sites, his most recent being Easter Island, the Galapagos and Mesa Verde.
