Before I flew to Pucallpa, Peru, I visited an office for explorers.
Where would you go if you wanted to meet explorers of the planet? Are there unexplored areas of the planet? Where would be the best place to meet explorers in Lima, Peru?
The South American Explorers Club? Maybe, but I think I know a better place, there is an office in Lima, Peru that has maps.
