Hello! I'm Damian✨ I am a performing artist and independent tour guide in the cities of Valparaiso and Santiago 🇨🇱. I focus on culture, art and history to better understand Chile and its sociability in the Latin American context❤️ I promote spaces where you can visit local history from a critical perspective and open to dialogue.

Welcome to Santiago de Chile!!
You've probably already felt the temperature, you've probably already seen the giant mountains that surround our capital, but do you know the story behind it?
