FairMail Peru team on the photography trip into the Peruvian Andes

In January the Peruvian FairMail teenagers set out on an unforgettable photography trip into the Peruvian Andes.

Accompanied by 4 foreign photography travelers and 2 volunteer photography trainers the group of 12 climbed up to 4.000 meters above sea level before descending again in the inter-Andean valley around Huamachuco, Peru. This proved to be the perfect base camp for excursions to nearby high altitude lakes, thermal hot springs, hikes to authentic Andean villages and pre-Inca ruins. The trip was the perfect mix between discovering off-the-beaten-track destinations, working hard on pictures for new FairMail cards and a lot of fun and laughter together. Check out the video we made of the trip to see for yourself:

There are three more FairMail photography trips planned for the coming months. Including a breath taking trip into the Cordillera Blanca in the end of July where we climb up to a beautiful 4.600 meter high glacial lake together. To learn more about FairMail’s photography trips, click here.

Four new photography trips to Peru

Tuesday, October 28th, 2014

How about hiking to a bright blue glacier lake at the foot of the 6768 meter high Nevado Huascaran, the second highest mountain of South America? Or bathing under the 771 meter high Gocta waterfall, the third highest waterfall in the world?

These are just two of the activities during FairMail’s 4 new photography trips to Peru. Besides visiting beautiful off the beaten track destinations, the FairMail photography trips are unique because you get to travel together with FairMail’s teenage photographers! Together you share the joy of taking pictures. By travelling with the teenagers you don’t feel like a tourist at all and you can make deeper contact with the locals. For the teenagers it is an opportunity to hear directly from potential customers what kind of pictures people in the west like.

Below you can find an overview of the 4 upcoming trips that we have planned, starting at 650 euro for 11 days, all included.
