The
Experiencers
These are not explanations. These are lived experiences -- held in silence for decades, and now being shared for the first time.
The power of these stories isn't in proving. It's in witnessing.
UAP stands for Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena. The term is now commonly used instead of "UFO" because it is broader and less culturally loaded.
Experiencers are people who report direct, personal contact with unusual or anomalous phenomena -- things that exist outside our ordinary, agreed-upon reality.
"It's time for me to start telling my stories. To start sharing. Because their mission is to now share their stories."
Their accounts. Their memories. What they know.
Loaiza
Sergio Loaiza is an aerial photographer and cartographer who, during a routine government mapping mission, unknowingly captured what many UAP researchers consider one of the most significant images in history: a stark black-and-white photograph of a saucer-like object suspended over Lake Cote.
The image is an official government record, preserved with a clear and undisputed chain of custody. Decades later, it continues to defy easy explanation.
But the photograph is only part of Sergio's story. Long before that day in the sky, his connection to UAP phenomenon began in the remote jungles of rural Costa Rica, where as a child he experienced encounters he describes not with fear -- but with wonder. A lifelong experiencer, he speaks of the "E.T.s," as he playfully calls them, with warmth and familiarity.
For Sergio, the mystery has never felt threatening. It has felt personal.
"It's time for me to start telling my stories. To start sharing. Because their mission is to now share their stories."
Emi's encounters with the phenomenon began with a calling -- one that drew her inexplicably from her native Italy to Costa Rica.
In Nuevo Arenal, she and her husband David opened Los Platillos Voladores ("The Flying Saucers"), an Italian restaurant that has drawn locals from across Costa Rica and travelers from around the world.
Since relocating, Emi has become a quiet but steady force within the experiencer community -- offering connection, warmth, and a place where the extraordinary can be spoken about openly.
