Hello, my name is Joan Manuel, I am originally from Callao, the main port of Peru. I have a degree in Tourism Administration from the Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos, Dean of America. I am very passionate about history, both in Peru and around the world. One of my greatest pleasures is football, both playing it and watching it on television. About 5 years ago I started working as a guide and the truth is that it was the first time that I really enjoyed a job to the fullest. I am grateful to have the luck of being able to work in what I like and enjoy.
