Friends of Naupa Odysseys

Zach has been a wing-buddy for me many times on my travels to Peru. I have had both hikes and medicine work where Zach has held a beautiful presence for my soul to navigate strong transformation processes.

From talking to Zach, I’ve felt that we’ve shared many similar experiences, I believe this is through his ability to replicate my energy through projection or deep empathy which has made me feel like we have been familiar far beyond the time that we spent together.

I would and DO recommend friends who are travelling to Peru for more than a tourist trip to arrange a multi-day hike or medicine buddy to make the most out of their time in the timeless lands of the Andes. Thank you brother for making me know that community and soul family are always out there holding the flame. Catch you soon.

My visit to Peru would not have had the same depth and richness of experience without Zach’s guidance. The wealth of knowledge he holds about Peru and The Sacred Valley were invaluable to me during our many adventures together; everything from the mysteries of Ñaupa Iglesia to the architectural history of Cusco to his connection to the local population of Pisac. He truly connects and grounds himself to the places and people around him.

Zach’s ability to be flexible and accommodating to my own needs for my travels was such a gift. He not only listened, but intuited what I was seeking during my journey and gave wonderful suggestions for what was possible. He held space during ceremonies with grace and compassion, reflecting how he carries himself in the world, and directed me toward other healers he had personal relationships with in order to bolster my overall experience during my stay.

Whether you’re looking for a transformative journey through medicine or a deeply knowledgeable guide to take you on the best hikes and natural wonders that Peru has to offer (I recommend both!), Zach is the person to meet. Your time together won’t just be as traveler and guide but will plant the seed for lasting friendship. Thanks so much being the inspiring energy and light that you are, Zach!
