I Was born in a small village in Peru along the Ucayali River.At age five I went to live with my uncle, a skilled hunter who raised me in traditional jungle ways.At age nine, my uncle begun instructing me in how to hunt and use medicinal plants.I continued this education throughout my teenage years, and also went on to commercially fish, hunt, and work as a guide for nature tour companies, sharing my array of jungle knowledge with professional photographers, scientist and nature lovers throughout the Peruvian Amazon region.I am eager to share my knowledge of passion for and experience in my home- THE JUNGLE- with interested and enthusiastic visitors.
