The Latinspirations Team
Maike Berkemeier
Founder & General Manager
I have been lucky to get to know the travel industry of Central and South America both from the client and supplier perspective. With Latinspirations I am transforming this expertise and passion into a new proposal for travel planning in Latin America: creating connections between travelers who are planning the trip of their lifetime and those who specialize in amazing travel experiences.
After studying Tourism and International Business, I started my career in the travel industry. Since then, I worked for a Chilean incoming travel agency, leader in adventure travel, a boutique Ecolodge in Patagonia, pioneer in sustainable tourism and a German tour operator specializing in Latin America.
Since a young age I have had a curiosity to discover new places and have travelled extensively in Central and South America. The beauty of the region has never ceased to amaze me!
Cecilia Rojas
Co-Founder
With Latinspirations I want to support the local travel industry in Central and South America and connect travelers to Latin America´s best local travel specialists.
I have studied Tourism Administration and Environmental Management and have been working in the travel industry for more than twelve years. It has always been one of my mayor concerns that tourism in Latin America develops in a sustainable way. Therefore I want to create a growing network of sustainable tourism suppliers and spread my concern among our partners in Central and South America.
I feel strongly connected to my home country Chile and other Latin American countries which I have been visiting with my family since I was a child.
As a nature lover, trekking passionate and cyclist, I cannot stop exploring Latin America´s amazing experiences!
