Live from Bitcoin Beach in El Zonte, El Salvador, in this episode, I sit down with my good friend Valentin Popescu, a Romanian missionary doing incredible work in Peru. We talk about how he's using Bitcoin as a real-world tool to bring hope and financial inclusion to some of the most remote and underserved communities in the country.Valentin shares his journey, from accidentally ending up in Peru after a back injury and a tragic loss, to launching a network of community centers that provide education, nutrition, emotional support, and now, Bitcoin. We get into his first experience using Bitcoin during the pandemic to buy food for families in need, and how that opened the door to building circular Bitcoin economies in the Andes, the jungle, and the coast.He's now running over a dozen community projects across Peru, places where Bitcoin isn't just a buzzword, it's how people are getting paid, buying food, and saving for the future. It's an inspiring story about faith, resilience, and the power of sound money to transform lives.Whether you're into missions, grassroots Bitcoin adoption, or just want to hear how sats are being spent in the Sacred Valley and the surf town of Huanchaco, this one's for you.Enjoy the show!- MikeSupport and follow Bitcoin Beach:https://twitter.com/Bitcoinbeachhttps://www.instagram.com/bitcoinbeach_sv/https://www.tiktok.com/@livefrombitcoinbeachWeb: https://www.bitcoinbeach.com/Support Motiv's Work:X: https://x.com/MotivPeruWebsite: https://motiv.ngo/IG: https://www.instagram.com/motivngoglobal/YT: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNWkLET6XQExcXqBL0SPguQFB: https://www.facebook.com/MOTIVNGOGlobalLI: https://www.linkedin.com/company/motivngoglobal/Browse through this quick guide to learn more about the episode:0:00 – Introduction1:18 – How can Bitcoin help poor communities around the world?3:31 – Who is Valentin Popescu and how did he end up in Peru?6:17 – What happened when Valentin moved to Peru as a missionary?10:15 – How did building playgrounds lead to Bitcoin in Peru?19:58 – Why did Valentin start giving shoes to kids in the Andes?22:45 – How did Bitcoin become a tool for crisis relief in Peru?25:14 – How did a lockdown in Peru lead to using Bitcoin for food?30:54 – Why are Bitcoin fees a problem and how does Lightning fix it?31:11 – What is Blink Wallet and how is it used in Peru?35:55 – How do poor communities start learning about Bitcoin?40:21 – Can Bitcoin help rural towns connect with tourists in Peru?41:43 – How is Bitcoin changing travel in places like Machu Picchu?43:35 – What is Juan Chaco and why is it a new Bitcoin hub?46:01 – How is Bitcoin being used in over 12 places across Peru?47:20 – Can farming communities really use Bitcoin every day?53:30 – Where is Bitcoin being used across the jungle, mountains, and coast in Peru?56:54 – How can people support or visit Motiv Peru's Bitcoin communities?58:38 – Can tourists really pay for everything in Bitcoin in Peru?1:01:20 – What is Motiv Global and how can others follow or get involved?Live From Bitcoin Beach

This week, we launch my conversation with Natalie Small & Javier Larco straight from Peru. Peru has a rich culture in surfing and a connection to Mama Cocha and Madre Tierra as healing sources. The surf industry and surf tourism have introduced another side of surfing; a darker side is driven by consumerism and competition. Natalie and Javier are on a mission to realign the local surf culture with its roots. Their intention has deep roots in healing and connecting humanity by caring for all members of the community. About Natalie: Founder and executive director of Groundswell Community Project. Groundswell Community Project offers various surf therapy programs for self-identifying women overcoming various forms of trauma and its effects. They are a transformational community of surf sisters who provide intersectional, brave, and safe spaces for all self-identifying women to find their unique healing, community, and power in the waves of Mother Ocean. Also, a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California. About Javier: Professional surfer and surf coach Has explored and surfed up and down the Peru coast, Ecuador, Mexico, California, Indonesia, and river surfed in Germany. He started his first surf school in 2003 in Las Delicias, was the surf coach for the Junior Pro Peru team 2016-2018, is the official Peru surf coach for Unleashed (Canada), Safari Surf Adventures (US), and Surf Adventures (Brazil), and now provides free coaching and adaptive surf therapy for local kids in Huanchaco. President of the Asociacion de Talentos Libertenos Del Surf and founded Surf Habilitados, a surf project providing surf therapy for local kids living with mental and physical disabilities and their families. Topics Explored: How do we realign surf culture with its roots? Is it surfing or humanity that needs to realign? Where did surfing take a wrong turn? Where did surfing go right? What are some things we can do to realign? What do you mean by heal and connect? How can therapy and surfing work together?

Felipe was the first ISF (International Surfing Federation - ancestor of the WSL) World Surfing Champion in 1965. As an outstanding athlete, he has an incredible track record, and shares his experience of the day that changed the rest of his life. When Felipe describes what it's like to surf in the 60's, it's as if you're transported into a Slim Aarons photo.  In 1974 Felipe was training with his best mate Pitty Block and was unfortunately trapped in one of the biggest earthquakes Peru has ever had to face. As only a true surfer would do, they decided to risk their lives and surf the tsunami that followed. He tells us the story of this doomsday catastrophe and how he came out alive. Ps kids, don't do this at home! This and other terrifying experiences could have made Felipe give up big wave surfing forever, but as he said, "when the horse bucks you off, you have to get back on". Felipe has a life filled with adventure and adrenaline. It's not a surprise that at the age of 75 he still gets out every day for a surf. But, in fact, it was an autoimmune disease that triggered Felipe to look into alternative medicinal treatments and study longevity.  In the episode we talk about how Felipe still manages to be flexible, energized and ready to surf every day without second thoughts. There are some tips and really interesting things to take from this episode about longevity, and the use of high doses of Vitamins.  In fact, case in point, Felipe has become a longevity coach and co-founded an organisation called SurfTill100, that encourages people of all ages to develop a sustainable lifestyle. Obviously the objective is to surf till you're 100 years old. Felipe is a living breathing example of his remarkable findings. In fact, thanks to his astonishing regime, he beat his 1968 paddle race time by 2 minutes at the age of 70! This is the journey of a hero, and it's not over yet!! Felipe Pomar, Jeff Hakman and Tom Woods are the surfing legends that founded Surftill100 and you can subscribe to their newsletter even if you don't join them in Huanchaco next May. In any case, you can connect with Felipe and his mates at www.surftill100.com  There is an amazing amount of information to be taken out of this conversation, and Felipe is such a humble, adorable and radiant human to talk to. Felipe has Facebook but he has hit the maximum number of friends. In any case, if there's anything to take from Felipe's wisdom it's is leave your screen alone, and get out there! Now!  Thank you Felipe for being such an awe inspiring guest. Until next week, take care, have fun and enjoy the waves.

In today's episode, I will be taking you to Peru where my guest Amy Schwartz is running a remote working experience for surfers with wanderlust. Amy's family business (she created it with her partner, John) Unleash Surf has been featured in The Inertia, GQ magazine, and even Forbes as THE destination for digital nomads, entrepreneurs and freelancers who want to take a step back from their 9–5 grind and put a new perspective on their careers. We discuss how Amy and John got the idea to create their business, the challenges they face and also the opportunities it has opened up for them, and the feedback they get from their guests and the local community. Amy tells us what it's like to surf in Peru and shares her favorite surf spots (Chicama is only an hour's drive away from Unleash's base). Amy is the loyal but mischievous person who convinced you to go night-swimming, eat too many mangoes and take the plane rather than the job. With her bursting energy, she tells us the story of how and why she and her partner came up with the idea to create a co-working space with self catered apartments opposite one of the most consistent waves on the planet. In an age where digital nomadism, mid life crises and existential wobblies are on the rise, I think that Amy and John's idea is brilliant. It's amazing how a change of scenery and a surf can stimulate creativity, productivity and create community. Unleash Surf can be a life-changing experience as Amy explains in the show, so I'll let her do the storytelling… Amy, thank you for being such a lively and lovely guest! To get in touch with Amy and Unleash Surf, connect to their website www.unleashsurf.com, their instagram account @UNLEASH and Facebook and email Amy directly amy@unleashsurf.com. Join the mailing list, as Amy said, the emails aren't spammy and, you never know maybe in a few years time, you'll be the one chilling on the waves of Huanchaco.

Amidst the giant sand dunes in Huacachina Peru, I find myself cajoling the Peruvian president to take a dune buggy ride. But he has a bum leg and wants to sit this one out. Only problem: he’s the star of this show. No president. No show. So it’s my job to hopefully get him up on his feet and then seated down in the dune buggy. They didn’t teach us any of this stuff in film school.

When you think about traveling to Peru, you most likely think about Machu Pichu in the Andes. But today's guest, Chris Backe, wants you to think about visiting the ruins and historical sites in Northern Peru for your next "where else to go" vacation. Chris is the blogger behind One Weird Globe, which explores the world's offbeat and bizarre destinations, and is the publisher of Choose a Way books, the tap-your-own-adventure guidebooks to real-life destinations. He's been seen in Atlas Obscura, Mental Floss, the Daily Mail, and dozens of other publications. Chris and his wife, a fellow traveler from Canada, have spent time living in Peru, and he shares what we've been missing in northern Peru. Chris says that northern Peru features an array of authentic, ancient, and well-preserved ruins from both pre-Inca and Inca civilizations. Machu Picchu, for all the attention it receives, ends up putting many worthy places in a big shadow. Offerings like the Huaca de la Luna (the temple of the moon) and Chan Chan (a UNESCO World Heritage) in Trujillo make for a pleasant stay – and having a beach town in Huanchaco only 20 minutes away is a nice bonus as well. Kuelap Fortress, one of the biggest stone fortresses remaining in the world, is located near Chachapoyas and is one of the most easily approached ruins in Peru. Chris has written about some of the other historical sites in this blog post. If you're ready for something more exotic, a few towns in Peru have "witches markets", selling potions and ingredients that look like they belong in a witches potion! There's also the Guinea pig breeding tour in Puno, the Museo del Cerebro (Brain Museum) in Lima, and a spectacular museum of 100+ cars (in photo above), an easy taxi ride from Lima. Besides his blog, you'll find Chris on Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest, and Instagram. If you’re enjoying these podcasts, please take a minute to subscribe on iTunes. And don’t forget to leave a rating (5-stars is always nice!) and/or review.

This podcast covers Northern Peru, starting at Chiclayo I head out on a tour to the 1500 year old Moche ruins at Sipán. Following this, I head three hours down the coast to the town of Trujillo, where I visit the Chimu city of Chan Chan, the largest Adobe (mud) city in the World and around 1300AD home to 60,000 people. Just outside Trujillo, and near to Chan Chan are the Huacas (sacred places) of the sun and moon - Huaca de la Luna and Huaca del Sol. These structures are also Moche adobe pyramids from about 800AD, and Huaca del Sol is the largest single pre-Colombian structure in Peru - built from an estimated 140 million adobe bricks. I finish the podcast in Huanchaco, 12km north of Trujillo. Huanchaco is a fishing town of about 12,000 inhabitants, that has now become well known thanks to three things - its reed fishing boats, its lovely beach and its fabulous surfing.
