Brenda was born in Lima, Peru. Since she was a kid, Brenda has had a passion for international things, including traveling and learning languages such as English, Portuguese, French and Quechua. As soon as she turned 18, she travelled to the United States and visited many beautiful cities such as Charlotte, New York, San Francisco, Miami and more. Brenda pursued a bachelor’s degree in Spanish and a master’s degree in Latin American studies at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. While Charlotte will always hold a special place in her heart, after receiving her master’s degree she decided to return back home after living in the US for four years.
She has travelled throughout Peru as an overseas mission trip coordinator for almost ten years. Recently, she spent two months in the gorgeous city of Cusco learning Quechua. During this time Brenda learned a lot more about her country, making her fall in love even more. These trips made her want to share her beautiful country with others, others like you.

The number of trendy restaurants in the city has exploded and today Lima is considered the gastronomic capital of Latin America.
Cusco city is generally warm during the day and cold at night. Bring sunblock and sunglasses for day tours, and don’t forget your warm clothes for the evenings. A thermal undershirt paired with a fleece, windproof jacket, and long pants are usually sufficient for Cusco’s 5C/40F nights.
