"Choose a job that you like and you will not have to work a day of your life" Confucius. Madrilenian by birth and traveler by vocation. My passion is traveling and this has also led me to live in Munich for a few years, which has allowed me to grow in many ways. It was in this city, where by chance I started working as a tour guide, a profession that allows me to combine two fields that I am passionate about, tourism and communication. I have always been linked to the world of tourism, which has allowed me to accumulate experience in different sectors and jobs. Ambitious in character, always looking for new projects to go a little further and constantly reinvent myself. This led me in 2019 to create my own tour company in Madrid and Munich called Todo Tours. With my feet on the ground and my eyes on a plane on my way to a new destination, I am always ready to undertake a new project, discover something new and learn as much as possible.

No pudimos hacer el tour de mujeres olvidadas ya que no se presentaron las personas para cumplir el mínimo exigido, la guía de dicho tour fue muy amable ya que nos recomendó que hiciéramos otro tour que comenzaba en el mismo sitio, el de Borbones monumental, muy recomendable. Esperamos poder hacerlo en nuestra próxima visita a Madrid.
