Mayumi is our only sister. She guides trekking trips for us, always with a great sense of humor and a lot of fun. Clients with Mayumi never stop laughing and many return to Huaraz to take a trek with her a second time. She is a very strong girl and some of our male guides and staff have a hard time keeping up with her!! When she is not guiding her two children keep her pretty busy and she is also studying English.

Anne lives in New Zealand and is our family friend and business associate. Her nickname in Peru is “La Bruja” which means “The Witch” She enjoys the New Zealand outdoors, particularly tramping, hiking and kayaking. Anne speaks Spanish and travels to Huaraz each year for trekking and climbing, and she knows the Cordilleras Blanca and Huayhuash and many of the local people very well. Anne works with our trekking teams and also helps with our administration. Anne is in Peru each year from late July until mid September.
Maria Evangelista:
Maria is an experienced trek cook with more than 20 years trekking around the Cordillera Blanca and Cordillera Huayhuash. Now she prefers to be an assistant guide so that she can spend more time chatting with people and showing them the areas where she has lived and worked all her life. Maria has extensive knowledge of local plants and their medicinal uses.
Mayumi, Anne & Maria are great friends and they enjoy working together and having fun with other women and families with children, showing them what must be some of the most beautiful places in the world.
