The story behind a photograph

In this summer I went to Machu Picchu with my older sister, we work a lot of to achieve it. Our travel was longer, we traveled many day from Arica(my older brother's house) to Aguas Caliente(village at the foot of the mountain), the journey from Cuzco to Agua Calientes was wonder because the landscape it is awesome.It was on this trip that I took this photograph.
When I see this image, I remember how I felt, and this is why I love it. I can remember what it was to travel with the car window down and the fresh air hitting my face. 
The daytime weather was good, was a sunny day, warm. We had a couple hours in the car at the morning and drove by this place at about 10am. The picture was taken in the highest point in the road, like 4000 metres above sea level. 
We did not stopped in the road, the driver was just driving and the landscape captivated us. 

Many people say that sometimes what is matters is no the destination, but the road. Most of the time I had a good time, I visited an awesome place. But this photo reminds me how beautiful and incredible the simple little things in the road are.
