At the end of the summer, BF and I are planning on going to South America for about 7 weeks. We haven''t bought tickets yet, but the tentative itinerary is to start in Brazil, Rio, Sao Paulo, beaches, etc., then Bolivia, then Peru (Cuzco, Lima, Machu Picchu). Most of our travel is going to be by bus, some inter-continent flights, and trains. BF has done a lot of this kind of traveling, and I totally haven''t. My forays into other countries have been along the lines of Spain, or Mexican resorts - pretty tame).
So two requests really:
1) For anyone who has been to these countries, what should be a must-see, or a must-go place?
2) What do I need to be prepared for? Diseases? Theft? Language-barriers? Anything essential I should pack, or know?
Thank you all!
