Carlos: I come from the stunning Andes, born and raised in the Sacred Valley of the Incas in Cusco-Ollantaytambo. Growing up, my parents taught me the Inca language, Quechua, then I added Spanish and English to my linguistic repertoire. My family roots are firmly planted in the fertile soil of the Sacred Valley, where my parents and grandparents work as dedicated farmers. At 15, I moved to Cusco a

nd spent 3 years studying tourism, setting the stage for a career in guiding. Living in Cusco for 22 years, I've become intimately acquainted with its vibrant energy, historical significance and cultural charm. I've been a local guide for 12 years, certified in tourism and equipped with wilderness first aid skills. For the past decade, I've been guiding mountain treks in Cusco, with experience under my belt from working with Intrepid, Inka Natura Travel, and Lima Tours

Davis: I studied at Melbourne University, earning a Bachelor of Commerce and a Graduate Diploma of Finance in 2019. I was a Consultant at Consulting and Implementation Services (CIS), a strategic advisory and consulting firm. In January 2020, I met Carlos and developed a close friendship on the Laras Trek. Equipped with my experiences as a Consultant helping Australian start ups, a shared friendship with Carlos and a passion and admiration for the Incan Empire & Cusco, Carlos and Davis reconnected earlier this year. I am currently living in San Blas, Cusco. I am thoroughly enjoying the people, trying to learn Spanish (any assistance welcome) and the new challenges that comes with living in a new Country. Back in Australia, I love my sports including NBA, AFL & Cricket, really enjoy getting to meet new people and hearing about their journey. Looking forward to seeing you soon!

More than a runner, the Chasqui was a guardian of information. 🧶 In his hand or slung over his shoulder, he would often carry the Quipu, a complex system of cords and knots that recorded precise data—from population censuses to war strategies. The Chasqui did not merely deliver an object; he delivered the voice and the order of the Inca across miles of mountainous terrain.”
