How did you get involved in travel?

"
Tourism and traveling have always been an essential part of my life, since my childhood, I grew up with my parents working in tourism so it has always been an integral part of my daily life.
Each trip I made was presented to me as a chapter of my story. I always helped them organize our family trips, which soon led me to awaken my interest in assisting people to also write a chapter in their story.
Allowing them to experience my country in the same way I did."

Please share a unique travel experience you will never forget.

"
I would definitely say that visiting the Amazon was the most unforgettable experience I've ever had. Being able to connect with nature and with such an important part of our culture and ancestry was a life-changing experience.

And also, all the other times I had the opportunity to be studying a subject at school, for example, arts, and I was able to travel to other countries, such as Italy, the Netherlands, France, etc, to better illustrate what I was learning.

Even though I'm still a young woman, I've been picking up countless chapters over these years of traveling, with more than 35 countries visited, some more than once, always looking for the difference, the detail, the feeling of being part of something, and the local perspective"
