Todo Tumi

Hi, I’m Erika, the creator of Todo Tumi and Sonqo Mail Club. I was born in Lima, Peru, and later moved to Cusco, where my family is from. My maternal family names, Condorhuaman and Maita, reflect my Andean and Inca heritage. My family story also includes Italian, Spanish, and a little Chinese ancestry—a mixture of cultures that has shaped who I am. In my twenties, I traveled to the United States to study. Living in North Carolina changed my life. I was touched by the kindness of the people—their smiles, friendly hellos, and simple questions like, “Hi, how are you?” Those small moments made me feel welcomed and showed me how meaningful human connection can be. Sonqo means “heart” in Quechua. Sonqo Mail Club brings together my cultures, travels, family memories, food, photography, music, art, books, and everyday moments. Each edition feels like a letter written from my heart to a friend, sharing what is happening in my life and the stories that inspire me. Through Todo Tumi and Sonqo Mail Club, I hope to send a little piece of culture, friendship, and joy to every mailbox.
