I was born and raised in Managua. I have worked in Tourism industry since 5 years. I am keen on the outdoors activities especially those involved in direct contact to the nature like hiking, snorkeling. Additionally, I love to swim, bird watching and writing. I am a peace of mind person, a carpe diem lover. In Nicaragua, one of my favorite places is the Ometepe Island, where Peace is all around. This place is a magnificent natural paradise, the people and its magic is just overwhelming.

How did you get involved in travel?
"As I studied Management and Development in Tourism in Managua, Nicaragua, I have gained depth love for the sustainability and responsible management of the touristic activity. I have first obtained experience in the hospitality industry and then have developed myself working on the organizations of travel plans for families, and in ecologically responsible adventures trips in all over Nicaragua. "
Please share a unique travel experience you will never forget.
"My favorite travel memory is exploring San Juan River in Nicaragua, at the Indio Maiz reserve with astonishing birds and magnificent trees on the jungle along the river and the great sensation of peace that this natural spot offers to all your senses. Give you a chance, and Let me introduce you a warm land full of color and tropical environments, at the heart of the Americas only here in fantastic Nicaragua.
