Born in Caracas, Venezuela in 1971; Camilo Parra's parents are members of the Venezuelan diplomatic corps, and thus, he has lived and travelled in many places throughout the world, including the U.S.A., Sweden, Belgium, Colombia, and Guatemala. He speaks English, French, Swedish and Spanish.

He is a long-term activist regarding enviromental and cultural preservation, and got his start as a ten-year-old, when he fought to protect las Cuevas del Indio - local ancient caves. After a long battle, the caves were saved and eventually became a national park; at the age of 12 he became the park's youngest guide.
