Always in my carry-on luggage:

My laptop and chargers; camera and lenses; AirPods; a good book; and a pair of slippers to wear in-flight.

Most underrated destinations:

Costa Brava, Spain – understated, authentic, and effortlessly beautiful along the Mediterranean coast.

On my bucket list:

There are still countless places calling me. Rwanda, Mongolia, Antarctica, Bhutan, Namibia, the Maldives, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Kazakhstan, Galapagos… and many more ahead. I’ve always been drawn to destinations that feel vast, ancient, and closely tied to the natural world.

What matters most to me isn’t how many places I visit, but maintaining a lifelong devotion to exploration—seeking out culture, human connection, and the perspective that only travel can offer. Again and again, I’m reminded that the distances we imagine between one another are often far smaller than they seem.

my most memorable travel experience:

Eighteen years after spending my senior year of high school studying abroad in Chile, I returned to the country, visiting Patagonia to experience Torres del Paine, one of the most stunning, remote places on earth. By complete coincidence, I was paired in a small hiking group with a couple from the same city where I had once lived.

Only after we reached the trailhead did the connection begin to unfold. When I learned they were from Curicó, I shared that I had lived there years earlier with a host family and attended school with their children. As we kept talking, school names, ages, and memories slowly aligned until the realization set in. They were the very host parents I had lived with as a teenager, and we had somehow found one another again nearly half a lifetime later.

We spent the next eight hours hiking toward the French Camp together, followed by several days sharing dinners, catching up, and visiting them again at their next hotel. By chance, we even found ourselves on the same flight back to Santiago, seated one row apart. We remain close today, and it stands as one of the most meaningful reunions of my life—made possible only through travel.
