How did you get involved in travel?

"Exploiting new places in a slow mode has always been a thing for me, and after graduation, I decided to fulfill my old dream of making a backpacking trip. I chose the neighboring countries Uruguay, Argentina, and Chile. I arrived in Chile through Patagonia and did the Torres del Paine trek, explored the "end of the world" in Ushuaia, and hiked the stunning trails of El Chalten. Little did I know, this trip would change my life forever, and instead of returning home, I decided to stay and switched from working in Economics to Tourism. Now, I dedicate my life to sharing the magic of this incredible place with others, drawing on my own experiences to guide adventurers through the trails I now call home."

Please share a unique travel experience you will never forget.

"My family was always a road trip lover. When I was 11 we went by car from my hometown of Vila Velha in Brazil to Belém do Pará. This was an extensive trip! More than 3.000 Km along the country's northeast coast on the way out and another 3.000 Km inland on the way back. I got to know places in the country that tourists don't usually go to, I got to know completely different corners of where I grew up and I had contact with contrasting countries within my country. This experience shaped me as a person."
