Sunburn in Peru
Since Peru is close to the equator, the sun can become dangerous for
your skin and eyes. Especially in the Sierra, the strong UV radiation
due to the height in combination with the rather cold air may burn
your skin before you notice it. Sun-blockers are easy to get in
drug stores (boticas). If your eyes are sensitive to light, better bring good
sunglasses from home. Of course, you can buy sunglasses in Peru, too, but you should really be sure that they block the whole UV spectrum,
otherwise, they might be worse than none.
