I am originally from Alajuela, Costa Rica. I live with my family on a small farm in La Guacima, Alajuela, where my workplace is also located. I love hiking, nature, and animals, and I Love relaxing the beach. I firmly believe that, trees are living beings capable of transmitting positive energies for grand purposes on Earth. Definitely, a space without a tree has no life!

I studied a bachelor’s degree in Administration with an emphasis on Tourism, and began my professional career over 15 years ago. I have worked in various hotels, developing different areas; this give me the opportunity to live for many years at the Guanacaste region.

It was at his time when I discovered the importance of showcasing the real Costa Rica to the outside world, and thus, the idea of Pura Van was born—which is a family business dedicated of renting carefully designed and fully equipped campervans for camping journeys throughout Costa Rica.

¡I have always believed in the importance of promoting green tourism with minimal impact, and a constant connection to nature, which is why I think camping in is the best way to do it! I am continuously seeking partnerships with local family businesses (ticos) that share this mindset and wish for the well-being and natural preservation of Costa Rica, so my recommendations will always be based on these pillars.
