Vera joined our team as a real career changer: after her business studies in Germany, she worked as a tax advisor in her hometown. Whenever possible she loved to travel; New cultures, people and countries have always had a special fascination on her and so it was only a matter of time until she decided to leave Germany. As a backpacker she traveled to many countries but in the end it was Chile, and Patagonia in particular, that she fell in love with. Vera is responsible for the organization of group tours and being a tax advisor she handles MOSER-active´s accounting. |

Gabriela is our guide with Swiss roots. She is a fully-qualified medical assistant and a trained snowboard instructor; moreover she took a special training in handling avalanches in Switzerland. On her trips through the world, Gabriela discovered her love for Patagonia very early. After a few years in several regions of Asia, New Zealand and South America she remembered Patagonia´s beauty and came back for good. Gabi works as a guide for our German-speaking travelers but speaks a perfect English and French, too. Her medical expertise qualifies her to act as our first-aid specialist. |

Enrique grew up in a small village called Parinacota that is situated in the Chilean Andes at an elevation of 4,600 meters. As an Aymara Indian he knows the Altiplano highlands with its snow-capped volcanoes like nobody else. Therefore, we are happy to have him as a local mountain guide on our expeditions to the North of Chile. Enrique does not just bring in his vast knowledge about the Aymara-culture, his friendly and open-minded nature is a true enrichment to our tours. He was trained by the National Outdoor Leadership School and attended several trainings with the Chilean Mountain Troopers, based in Putre. Enrique speaks Spanish and Aymara. |
| Erik was raised in Copiapo in the North of Chile and he calls the Cordillera de los Andes with the numerous 6,000-meter summits his home. He ascended more than forty 6,000-meter summits and hence is by far one of the most experienced local mountain guides in the greater area of Ojos del Salado and Puna de Atacama. Twenty summit tours alone in the highlands of Ojos del Salado and his calm and cool-headed character make him our best guide for all mountain excursions in this area. Erik speaks Spanish and a fair amount of English. |
