Our Story
My name is Poppy Villavicencio. I’ve lived a life full of adventure and healing. Including meeting my husband (and business partner) in Machu Picchu
Let me tell you our story.
I spent 10 years working in a highly stressed corporate job. This company did little to help employees with their work-life balance, physical health, and mental health. In general, the population of employees were angry, stressed, and making impactful mistakes out of exhaustion.
The adventures kept happening, and along the way, I learned more about myself and the healing powers of yoga, meditation, and other spiritual disciplines.
I kept pushing south and ultimately ended up backpacking all the way through Central America. When I got as far south as Panama I hopped on a plane to Peru. I was at the foothills of Machu Picchu, Peru when I met my husband. It was love at first sight. 4 months later we were married and moved to Minnesota. I grew up in Minnesota and my lovely family lived here. I missed them and I wanted to be close to them. Edward was up for the adventure. At this time we started working in the corporate world.
We had two girls. Ananda Micaela and Satyana Rafaela.
The Samkalpa, or intention, of Magical Peru Adventures, is that everyone we touch, from our teachers to our clients, is impacted to the highest level possible.
Come Join us on a trip of a lifetime!
