EVERYTHING BEHIND VIAJATELMUNDO
Viajatelmundo is really, a true love story. Love for travel & Love for each other.
It is possible that you can identify with what I am going to share with you. Life usually takes us all along different paths, but at the same time very similar.
We believe that the most important thing in life is Love. It is the most powerful force. Able to move mountains and change destinies and make us draw strength from wherever. That's why we firmly believe that you have to do what you love . Follow your own path and pursue your dreams wherever they take you.
Nowadays everyone has the desire to have a more meaningful life . To really contribute something to others, and that is what we want.
"Life is a mystery. Don't waste time trying to solve it." - Dan Millman.
The Middle of the Story
Let's say I followed the scheme "expected by any parent ." I studied Mathematics at university and was soon working in a large company .
I always wanted to live outside. I had never been on Erasmus and it was a thorn in my side... After trying for several years and sending thousands of CVs, one day I finally found a job outside of Spain, in Amsterdam!!
I was very excited. Wow, living and working in Amsterdam, how incredible… Right? I went to live there and not everything was a bed of roses... HOW COLD! Also at first at work I was a little scared... I didn't know anyone, I had no friends, far from home... I am a very sociable person and being away from my family and friends was hard and I felt alone...
But soon I started connecting with more people and created a wonderful new life in Amsterdam. And then in that moment, I had everything
Living alone in a local neighborhood, in an incredible city, surrounded by international people. Working remotely, living in a beautiful house, earning money... It was a dream come true. It was just what I had been asking for for years. I saw myself, even learning the Dutch language...
But finally that moment arrived that had arrived in each of the previous jobs... I was only thinking about the weekend arriving , going on vacation, finishing the schedule to do things that I liked... Have you ever felt that your job was stealing your joy?
I couldn't take it anymore! Although it had been a dream come true, I felt like I was wasting my life . I felt like I was in a prison. I started trying to monetize my passions or talents. But what were they? I am a person who has many tastes and hobbies, but what was my greatest passion? Have you wondered if you could make a living with your passion? What if I went wrong? What if I fail?
I was also wondering. If I'm not happy here, where would I be? I had always dreamed of taking a gap year and traveling the world and now was the perfect time! I left my job and went to travel through Latin America and there I discovered that I could feel at home even though I was so far from "home."
Latin America brought me back to life. It gave me dreams and hopes like I had never had before. He had been reborn. He was a new person.
I spent 6 months traveling through Latin America that seemed like 6 days... I spent a month and a half in Mexico and I didn't want to leave, but from there I flew to Peru and upon discovering Peru... I fell in love with the country . The first time I saw Machu Pichu I had been in Peru for more than a month. The expectation had been so great... It did not disappoint, on the contrary, what I felt there in those mountains was something magical... Have you ever felt that while traveling? Isn't that the best feeling in the world?
Like when you are for the first time on a Safari in Africa, or the first time in the Salar de Uyuni in Bolivia... In fact it was right there, just before crossing into Bolivia where I met the second part of the story, Alejandra, which I will present to you now .
On my trip I not only discovered that traveling made me happy, I was in my element... I loved connecting with people, learning customs, culture, gastronomy, nature... And since then I know that there is another life that you can live. I discovered myself, I connected with my essence. Now I live traveling and what better way to help others do it.
The Other Half of the Story
And now, let me introduce you to Alejandra, the other half of this incredible adventure.
Mexican! From the city of Leon, Guanajuato. Passionate about travel and cultures, she always had a deep connection with the diversity of the world. Since she was little, she dreamed of exploring beyond family borders, capturing the essence of each place through her eyes. 👇🏽 👇🏽
I have 3 sisters and 2 brothers and my mother had to raise us all alone... She took several jobs at the same time to be able to support us. So at 10 years old I already had to take the bus alone and take my little sister to school.
Since then I haven't stopped working. I had to be a strong woman from a very young age . I studied law and worked on super complicated cases in which, sometimes, weeks would pass and I would hardly have left the house. All day working. He had peaks of work and earned very well on the cases. So then I had some spectacular trips. Especially to Japan, Thailand, India, Bali... But then I had to return to reality again... Until I realized that I was wasting my life . I didn't have the time I wanted to spend on my family, my hobbies, my dreams of starting a family and traveling.
So I decided to stop getting involved in that work and discover myself . I went to India where I had dreamed of going so much. I started to change my habits and pursue my dreams more.
And in them I found the passion to know the world and help others to know it.
This is how Viajatelmundo began
When Yaser was traveling through Peru, in fact, our last day of the trip for both of us, life made us meet for the first time. On Lake Titicaca, in Peru. The next day we separated . The next day Yaser crossed the border to Bolivia and I returned to Cuzco to take the plane to Mexico. It was only one day together, but that day marked a before and after.
Although our initial trajectories were different, we shared a common vision : a belief in the magic of travel and the importance of living an authentic life.
Over time, our lives and experiences came closer towards a shared dream: creating a unique travel agency that not only offered destinations, but experiences that transformed lives. We decided to embark on this exciting journey together.
Yaser's love for photography integrated perfectly with my vision of travel. We began to document our trips in a way that goes beyond typical tourism images. We wanted to capture moments, tell stories and convey the authenticity of each destination.
Together we have explored alternative routes, immersed ourselves in the local culture and tasted the authentic cuisine of each place. Our mission is to take you beyond traditional postcards and immerse you in the true essence of each destination.
From the bustle of the cemeteries on the Day of the Dead in Mexico to the serenity of the Patagonian landscapes, each experience has enriched our perspective and reaffirmed our belief in the magic of travel to transform lives.
By joining forces, we created Viajatelmundo , a window to authentic exploration and connection with the world. We are passionate about sharing our experiences with you and helping you discover the unique beauty of every corner of the planet.
Through Viajatelmundo , we want to inspire you to follow your dreams , to discover new cultures and live experiences that will stay with you forever.
Welcome to our community of dreamers and passionate travelers . Together , let's make each trip an unforgettable story.
Fondly,
Yaser and Alejandra
