How did you get involved in travel?

"Coming from a long lineage of artisans and handicraftsman in the heart of my city, I grew up surrounded by tourists, which allowed me to appreciate the vastness and multiculturalism of our world. This experience led me to decide to study Tourism and focus my efforts on the travel industry."

Please share a unique travel experience you will never forget.

"During a trip to Los Cabos, I met an incredible person. It turned out we coincided on one of the tours to the arch, and while we were at "Playa del Amor," we had a very casual but pleasant talk. It turned out we were staying at the same hotel, so we exchanged contacts. That night, I sent him a message to meet at the beach and continue our enjoyable conversation. I experienced something I had never felt before... I felt PEACE, a unique sensation that he transmit and made me feel. The next day, he had different tours from mine, and I never thought I would see him again other than at the hotel, but it happened! We coincidentally met at the famous Hotel California during my tour, and I took the opportunity to take a photo with him as the sunset go by behind us. The following day, I looked for him to say good bye. My trip was over. We hugged so hard; that seemed as if he were about to go to war and I would never see him again. It was so painful that I couldn't help but cry on the way to the airport, knowing I wouldn't see him again. He was from Mexico City and I was from Puebla, and although we were from nearby cities, it was unlikely we would meet again... Six months later, we reunited in Atlixco, a magical town, where we became a couple. Now, Alberto and I live together in the city of Puebla with three playful rescued kittens."
