Here in our headquarters we have a new Project Coordinator, Roberto Guzmán. Roberto was born right here in Cartago and was raised in Alajuela.

We’re very proud to have Roberto on our team and welcome him warmly.

He studied Travel and Tourism in the nearby town of Cartago and then worked as a tour guide and Spanish teacher at La Flor, one of our projects situated in the Central Valley region.
