CURRENT MISSION

To connect with and learn from beautiful people, to break barriers so that people across socioeconomic barriers discover the gift of travel, and to give new travelers the support to keep going.

ABOUT ME

Holaaa! My name is Analucía and I'm a Peruvian-Chilean-American sociologist currently living in San Francisco, CA. I'm an avid explorer and gastrodiplomat... meaning I like to discover new places, meet new people, and use food a vehicle for connection and peace building. I'm passionate about sustainable agriculture, singing, yoga, reversing climate change and meeting people that expand and enrich my understanding of the world.
