Hi! I'm Jess. I'm Mexican, a digital nomad/writer, and I've been traveling mostly full-time since 2021 :) More than 30 countries later, I've curated great spots for my friends and myself, and now I get to share them with you! Find the best spots for food, remote working, accommodation, and "must-see" landmarks, as well as local and off-the-beaten-path gems. A few more things-
🪄I specialize in Brazil, Mexico, Colombia, and parts of India.
🪄 A foodie and a fan of cozy coffee shops to work from.
🪄 Slow traveler and volunteer
🪄 Brand Manager at an e-commerce agency, Yoga Instructor
🪄 Spontaneous travel is the best in my opinion but it got me in sticky situations 🤭so, through experience (the hard way) I learned about visa requirements, exchange rates, phone service, and so forth. It's all compiled with me, so feel free to pick my brain about anything.
See you soon!
