Carla Lopez Valpeoz, 35, of Detroit was last seen in Peru after visiting Machu Picchu. Legally blind from optic nerve atrophy, she traveled widely and wrote a travel blog called Visionless Adventures. After the wedding she and a friend attended in Lima, Carla traveled to Machu Picchu and returned to Cusco in the early morning of December 12, 2018. Surveillance at the Pariwana Hostel shows her leaving that morning and getting into a taxi alone; footage later captured her walking with a cane near the Pisac Archaeological Park.

Carla missed a December 15 flight from Lima to the United States, prompting her family to file a missing person report and travel to Peru. Peruvian authorities, the U.S. State Department, and the FBI have been involved. Extensive searches of Pisac with drones and canine units turned up no belongings. Some investigators later suggested she may have been taken or lured away rather than having an accidental disappearance in the park.

Anyone who traveled in Cusco or Pisac in December 2018, or who has information about a legally blind woman matching Carla’s description, please come forward.
