I really moving to Peru for an adventure and to learn Spanish. I'll actually be making more money there too if you can believe that.
Cusco recently took 2nd in Conde Nast Readers' Choice Awards for best city in Latin America:

It's great to visit - I've gone twice - and Machu Picchu was the best view I've seen in the world. But Cusco is a different planet than anything else you've seen in the world. A small city, very poor, very Indian, with 2000 gringos coming through every day. There are packed nightclubs every night.

I must admit I've been disappointed that it will actually be more difficult to pick up girls there (at least that's what I've heard from Roosh posts and others).
NOT TRUE for Peru. Buenos Aires, which took #1 in that poll, is another animal. It's a giant capital without the history of poverty, and the people consider themselves European. It's colder. The women aren't likely to be impressed by a gringo. In Peru there are many of them who will view you as their ticket out of there, which many gringos take advantage of.

Is there anyone out there who lived in S America and who has used game down there? Any stories about at least getting a girlfriend? Does being blonde and blue eyed help at all?
Blonde hair blue eyes is preferred throughout Latin America.

I havent been there personally, but I met latinas from Peru... blond with blue eye? Man you will get easy lays. Latinas have a penchant for gringos and europeens...
Not just the Peruvians. You'll have just as easy a time cleaning up on the gringas going to see Machu Picchu. It wasn't as extreme as in China, but my 2+ years in Peru have shown that most gringas aren't attracted the Peruvian guys. These same gringas are going only for Machu Picchu, but they'd like to get laid on vacation when they can sneak in a one-night stand their friends from home won't find out about. I predict you'll be pulling 50% gringas.

watch out for your money though, peruvians women warned me about woman thieves...
True, but worse in Colombia. My way of steering clear of that for almost five years is steering clear of chicks that are TOO easy. And of course don't drink anything you didn't see poured, more important in Colombia but I'm hearing that
scopolamine is sneaking its way into Peru as well.
Have fun!
