Hello, I am Martin, I'm very passionate about tourism in my country. I went to work on cruises around the world, travelled around more than 66 countries and 200 ports, so I felt the need to offer my services and help travelers to have better experiences in a country where people don't speak English. I want to make things easier for them so they have a better experience visiting. With respect to my work, I like to publicize my country and join tourists in their discovery of beautiful places like the Panama Canal, yet helping them understand there's more to Panama than that. We have can reach a jungle in less than 1 h, we can visit an indigenous village like Embera, whose inhabitants comprise one our country's ethnic groups. I like to travel around the country and continue discovering new places to then show visitors, so they can see the magic that Panama has. All my tours are open to being personalized as to adapt to your needs and to have a one of a kind experience in this country that has much to show, from culture and gastronomy to hiking and overall adventure. My goals are to make your experiences unique, so you can enjoy your stay in my country and every place we visit to the fullest. Remember that I am your advisor for turning your trip or vacation in my country into a singular experience. I am certified guide by the Panama Tourism Authority. I learned English at the University of Mobile, Alabama. I have first aid courses, among others I partook in on board cruise ships and in Panama. Professional Licenses: I have the 5 courses of Sailor on cruises First Aid Certificate with SINAPROC PANAMA Ambulance Driver at the Nicaraguan Red Cross Translator for Kaiser University, Nicaragua Former student of International Law at UAM Nicaragua Studying Bachelor's Degree at ISAE Panama I have lived in 5 countries and traveled 66 countries and 200 ports working on cruises as Hotel staff My only restriction would be the weather
