Manorca in Peru has long been known as a surfer's paradise in South America but its subtle beauty has also been its downfall, as luxury resorts have been quick to attract the highest-paying customers to the area.
So backpackers hoping to enjoy the delights of Manorca too will be pleased to hear of Loki Hostels' new venture.
The Loki Hostel offers dorm rooms at a fraction of the prices found around the area in other luxury hotels and is designed for backpackers' specific needs and as such comes with free internet and wireless, as well as multiple power ports.
Backpacker travel insurance will no doubt be necessary before visiting Peru as the chance to take strolls in the jungle or explore the beaches will be enchanting but could be dangerous.
Backpacker travel insurance should cover most eventualities but any backpackers hoping to climb the mountains to Machu Picchu should check with their policy first to ascertain whether or not the trip could invalidate their cover.
