Her place in the world is without a doubt one that has snow. She loves the Swiss Alps, Scandinavia, and in Argentina, Bariloche is her must-see destination.

Her place in the world is Scotland and in Argentina is the lakes region in Northern Patagonia, especially in autumn and spring. Vero is passionate about reading and fond of theater, cooking and traditional archery.

Carla Parricelli

Accounting Executive

One of the things I enjoy the most in life is traveling. My motto is: 'Live a life you will remember and do what makes you happy'. And traveling makes me happy. I love mountain landscapes and doing water sports when I travel. That is why my favorite places in Argentina are Bariloche and San Martín de los Andes. My dream is to tour Europe, especially Italy and do a road trip from north to south. In addition to traveling, I love cooking pastries, dancing, listening to music and watching series.

Rocío Chaperon

Accounting Executive

Cuando viajo me encuentro siempre en movimiento, tratando de conocer y obtener la mayor experiencia posible del destino.

Además de viajar, en mis tiempos libres disfruto de pasar tiempo con mi familia y amigos, leer sobre psicología y hacer yoga y pilates. Amo el Noroeste Argentino. Los paisajes mágicos de la Puna, su gastronomía y los vinos de Cafayate. Un lugar en el mundo: Italia, sumergirme en su historia, impactarme con su arquitectura y por supuesto, disfrutar de sus platos típicos.

Wanda Saade

Sales & Marketing

Wanda keeps saying that "traveling is to live" and that every year a new place must visited. Wan finds it difficult to decide which is her favorite place in the world as she loves the beaches of Brazil and the Caribbean, the beauty of European cities, and especially the ancient world and the Mediterranean: Italy, Greece and Israel. In Argentina her place is the fascinating jungle in the Province of Misiones with the impressive Iguazu Falls. Wanda is a fan of gastronomy, cinema and theater.

Yohanna Velázquez

Marketing

For me, traveling is about discovering other realities and realizing how small we are in a world that has so much to offer. My place in the world is Bariloche, in all its seasons and variations, a city that never disappoints no matter what stage of life you visit. My dream is to explore Italy, discover its history through its architecture, artwork, and Italian recipes. In my free time, I enjoy working out, going out for snacks with friends, taking photos, and editing videos.

Mai Geisman

Product Analyst

For me traveling is always an adventure, exploring new places in depth, its people, its customs. It is undoubtedly the best way to disconnect from the routine and renew energy. My favorite place in Argentina is the Iguazú National Park and a place in the world that arouses fascination for me is Morocco. In my free time I like to go for long walks, I love to go to art exhibitions, the cinema and get together to eat a good ‘asado’ with my friends.

Agustina Curbelo

Operations

For me, traveling is the most rewarding experience there is: discovering new cultures, traditions, cuisine, and stories. It's giving us the chance to be surprised every day. My favorite place in Argentina is Patagonia. Feeling the breeze sweep over the mountaintops, cheering for having reached the summit, is a magical experience. I'd like to visit as many destinations as possible. But I must admit there's one place that envelops me in its magic and mystery: Egypt. Another of my passions is painting.

Juan Rapela

Operations

I'm passionate about traveling and experiencing new customs, cultures, and landscapes. Enjoying the journey, acquiring new travel experiences, and adventures is the best way to disconnect from the routine and clear your mind. There are many places in Argentina I love and would visit again, but the destination I would choose for life is Bariloche. A place in the world: Japan. In my free time, I enjoy drinking mate, playing soccer, photography, and spending time with friends.

Belen Maietta

Administration

For me, traveling means opening up and expanding my intellectual, emotional, and cultural identity, allowing me to be who I am. If I had to choose one place in Argentina, it would be the North, whose culture I consider very rich and human. I also love beaches; I'm fascinated by Playa del Carmen and Cancún. In my free time, I enjoy sports and decorative crafts like painting, which I give as gifts to friends and loved ones.

Belen Di Mauro

Administration

Viajar para mi significa abrirse a conocer nuevas culturas, conocer gente y a una misma fuera de un entorno conocido. Me encanta Mendoza por sus paisajes y excelentes vinos. También tengo una conexión especial con Colonia del Sacramento, que siempre me sorprendió con la simpleza y belleza que ofrece, es un lugar para desconectar de las grandes ciudades. En mis ratos libres, me gusta leer, escuchar música, dibujar.
