Luis Martin Alzamora

Born and raised in Lima, Peru, Luis Martín Alzamora, at 42, balances life as a doting father of two with his lifelong love affair with food. His culinary journey began at the family table, where his dad sparked his passion for cooking from an early age. In 2014, he kicked things up a notch, founding @PapeaPeru and turning his hobby into a hustle.

You’ll find his words sizzling in the pages of two print mags in Argentina and one back home in Peru. But writing’s just one slice of the pie for Luis. He’s always on the move, globe-trotting to taste new flavors, soak up diverse cultures, and embrace local traditions.

Luis isn’t just about food; he’s a voice for sustainability too. With a nod to his Peruvian roots, he’s all about protecting local produce and advocating for responsible fishing practices. For Luis, it’s not just about what’s on the plate; it’s about preserving our planet’s flavors for generations to come.
