"Raw Travel - Lovable Lima" Premieres This Weekend In The U.S.

In addition to discovering the appeal and diversity of the different neighborhoods of Central Lima, Barranco, Miraflores and Callao, "Lovable Lima" explores the unique Asian influence on the South American country's culture with a visit to historic Chinatown.

With a host of gastronomical influences and a plethora of homegrown, organic produce, Lima is also arguably the foodie capital of Latin America.  Raw Travel explores this aspect of Limeño culture, with a visit to local markets and hidden gem restaurants to get a taste of the city's heralded gastronomical delights.

"Lovable Lima" then gets a shot of adrenaline as Lima's scenic cliffs, overlooking the Pacific Ocean, provide the perfect backdrop to paraglide over the city in one of the most unique adventure travel experiences available to urban explorers. Raw Travel also visits the Cemetery of Nueva Esperanza, the picturesque and surreal indigenous cemetery on the outskirts of Lima, that some claim is the second largest in the world.

Keeping with Raw Travel's mission of showcasing ways in which travelers can give back through voluntourism, Raw Travel visits the French based organization "Niños Del Rio" (Children of the River), which works to get abandoned and runaway children off the streets of Lima and into a loving home.  

"Travelers too often ignore Lima and the rest of Peru in a rush to more publicized areas such as Cusco or Machu Picchu. We want to show visitors what they've been missing, beginning with Lima, one of the most unique cities in all of South America," states Robert G. Rose, Executive Producer and Host of Raw Travel.

"Peru is a large, diverse and magnificent country. Stampeding to the same sites in a quest to check things off a bucket list is neither authentic nor responsible. We want to encourage visitors to diversify and explore Peru in a more sustainable and potentially more fulfilling manner," Rose continues.

The "Lovable Lima" Episode will be followed by a road trip down Peru's southern coast which will kick off Season 5 of Raw Travel in late September and early October.
