Only got to use the airport bus and the metropolitano when I was there.. I dont think uber is recommended.. perhaps, a taxi booked from your hotel is a better..

Lime

We used Uber in Lima. No problem.

I booked taxis from my hostel/hotels each time. Do not get in a taxi from the street.

Is barranco a good district to stay at?

It’s great! I’d feel good in that area, and the food/cultural scene is lovely. There are parts of downtown Lima that I would avoid (though I’m an Asian woman and definitely looked out of place) - we were followed by car and definitely kept the city walks short. Miraflores is the “new” and modern area but isn’t too exciting / unique to Peru (but still worth checking out).

Hey I'm in Lima too!

My local friend said the Westin (you'll know "the one") has an amazing brunch that locals frequent, so if you're staying there I suggest asking hotel staff where to go.

Networking question here. A retired partner at the firm I used to work out reached out to me recently about attending an afternoon during the week (b4 4/30) with one of his long time clients. The partner and I have kept in touch since I joined my new firm and I feel like his invitation is a great networking opportunity since the client (who I have worked with before) is on a number of boards. Torn as how to request off as an S3. Could materialize to nothing but could be good for reconnecting.

Would love everyone’s thoughts! Which of these two options would you pick if your goal is to buy and hold for appreciation purposes given these are in a very hot market. Both same lot size.

Option 1:
- $175k lot located on very busy street but across the street from new $700k townhomes and restaurants

Option 2:
- $250k 3 bed/1 bath fixer upper located at end of dead end street, houses on street all fixer uppers, located down the street from Option 1 (so also near new builds and restaurants)
