ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Nelson Lopez

Hi, I’m Nelson López. I was born in 1992 and started out studying computer sciences, which led me to work for the Cuban government. But one day, I discovered my true passion—being a tour guide—and my life completely changed. For over 10 years now, I’ve had the chance to explore every corner of Cuba, sharing its beauty, history, and culture with people from all over the world. What I love most about my job is that I learn something new every single day. Whether it’s uncovering a hidden gem or hearing stories from my guests, this work keeps me inspired and connected to my amazing country.
