Jorge was born in Cusco, and from a very young age, was a passionate backpacker. Once he finished his engineering degree, he dedicated himself to traveling the world for almost 10 years, experiencing many cultures, customs, and ways of seeing life across the five continents, including the jungles of Ecuador and Peru. He resonated deeply and connected with the forest and the wisdom of the people, to the point where he met Jack and Tui; close friends replete with the activism in favor for the Amazon that they proclaimed. Today, Jorge manages the space and resources of Xapiri Ground, and also dedicates himself to the instrumental practice of sound healing.
