Sunset in Lima

"I fell in love at the seaside"

Sara and I have had many magical moments during our travels, and this was one of them.

This is how best things happen in life, without planning and as a surprise, without expectations. We weren't supposed to go to Peru, but we had a long long wait for our flight to Ecuador, so we decided to go out and we knew that we wanted to go directly to the sea. 

We went to the Miraflores beach, on a beautiful and safe area in Lima. 

We sat on the rocks on the beach and immediately got hypnotized. 

The beach of Miraflores is rocky, full of little, soft and round rocks. The sound of the waves crashing with those rocks was something I hadn't heard or felt before. The rocks made the waves sound strong but still very calm, it was something that just kept both of us quiet. We didn't need any words, I think we both knew what we were living and just wanted to enjoy the moment. It was perfect: surfers in the landscape, the sleek rocks under our bare toes and little water drops of the waves refreshing our skin. 

And when the evening arrived, and the sunset begun... It left us breathless and without words. One of the most beautiful sunsets I've ever seen.
