Doug Newton, a native of St. Petersburg, USA, first traveled to Latin America in the early nineties, living in Guatemala and teaching English. He has been going back ever since, traveling extensively throughout Central and South America and leading backpacking and adventure tours. Along the way, he also earned a bachelor's degree in South American Languages, studying Portuguese in Brazil, Quechua in Peru and Aymara in La Paz, Bolivia. He was already fluent in Spanish. Between tours, Doug is currently pursuing a master's degree in Spanish Education, hoping to soon combine his love of teaching with adventure tourism in a unique travel-study program.  Besides languages, Doug's passion is trekking, particularly to ruins. The wonderful thing about trekking in the Andes, he says, is that no matter where you are, you always find yourself on an old Inca road.
