Hello, my name is Bayron Manuyama. I am the founder of Capybara Tours & Lodge.
I was born on the banks of the Nanay River, a tributary of the mighty Amazon, in the beautiful village of Padrecocha.
Padrecocha is a quiet, beautiful, century-old village surrounded by three rivers and was first settled by people of the Kukama ethnic group.
My Kukama ancestors came here in search of a better life for their children.
After the terrible rubber boom in the Amazon, which wiped out the Amazon tribes, more people from the Bora, Yaguas, Shuar and other ethnic groups came to settle in my community, enriching the Amazonian heritage of Padrecocha.
We, the proud young descendants of these people, want to recover and revalue the legacy of our ancestors to share it with compassionate people from all over the world.
Welcome to the Amazonia amigas y amigos! Tayrakana Kukama Uka!
