JOEL DEYVIS FUENTES RÍOS “HD”
What's up, guys? I'm HD. I was born on October 12th, and I am 34 years old. I consider myself a person with a sense of humor and committed to my work. I like to play soccer, and I am fluent in English, Portuguese, Spanish, and Quechua.
I chose a career as a tour guide because I like to discover and teach the culture and history of our ancestors. One of the experiences I had en route was that one of the passengers sprained his ankle, and I carried him on my back the rest of the way to help him; it was one of the most rewarding moments I will never forget! Therefore, this profession is more than just guiding. It gives unforgettable moments to people who come from far away to explore our beautiful country.
Of all the routes, I consider that I have more experience in Salkantay, Inca Trail, Choquequirao, Inca Jungle, Lares, and the Sacred Valley of the Incas. But undoubtedly, the one that has impacted me the most was the route to the majestic Ausangate. To enjoy the most beautiful views of the Andes is the best.
I have been practicing this profession for about 10 years, including 4 years as part of the Salkantay Trekking family; I have the conviction to become the best, together with the excellent guides that make up the team.
