Travel is one of my long standing passions in life. I've traveled the world to more than 70 countries revisiting many to learn and experience how life is lived and work is carried in each destination. I've learnt what people want and how those wants are addressed differently while the core stayed the same.  ​

​​

Coming from the creative field of marketing and communications, each journey made me approach my work in a more creative way and, in many occasions,  those unexpected ideas were behind the success of many of the brands I've worked with over the last 20 years.
