FROM OUR FOUNDER & CEO

I am always gratified by the enthusiasm our Destination Specialists have when it comes to furthering their knowledge and understanding about our destinations.  

 This month, Tatiana just returned from Indonesia; Justin is currently gorilla trekking in Uganda and Rwanda, and Volker is attending Indaba and doing site inspections in South Africa. 

 Personally, I and my wife, Usha, will be traveling to Peru at the end of the month. We will be staying at two hotels – the brand new Hotel B, scheduled to open in June in Lima; and Titilaka Lodge on a private peninsula at Lake Titicaca. We are interested in learning about their sustainable practices.

 It is so important for all of us to keep current on what’s happening so we can better serve you.  We will all report back to you with what we discover.  We wish each of you safe journeys.

 Best wishes,

 Mahen Sanghrajka
