Our team
Pablo Parra
co-founder
Growing up in the French Pyrenees early led Pablo to adventure in the mountains. Exiling himself to a big city working in corporate banking made him feel the urge to return to a more natural state. To him, cultural immersion is the most important part of a perfect runcation.
Pierre Parra
co-founder
Pierre has spent 15 years of his life traveling for business. He never lost an opportunity to challenge himself and ran in pretty much all the countries in Latin merica, Europe & Asia. He became a strong road runner but remained always ready to climb & jump on any rock on any trail.
Youa Xiong
Ambassador
Youa was born in Northern Thailand, in the exact same area where Albera Expeditions launched its first out-of-France trip. As she also became a killer ultra-runner, and supports a Sport for Kids association there, she naturally became our ambassador and runner for this trip, and many to come.
Rebekah MacKay
Photographer
Rebekah is a road runner and photographer, based in New-York City. Her job led her to focus on what she loves the most: running & traveling. As an adventurer, she hopped on one of our run-cations in the twinkling of an eye and decided to pursue the adventure with us.
