I'm Sergio, Bolivian.

"Paceño" proud of been born in one of the most unique and culturally richest places in the world. IT Engineer with a full time job for now, but dreaming of escaping routine someday, leaving everything behind and explore the world once again.

I can't resist chocolate in all of its shapes and flavors. I refuse to start a day without a cup of coffee and I think the best way to end it is with friends around a glass of wine. I like to run marathons as a stress reliever.

I'm a football fan, even though I can't play it so good. I enjoy watching it and won't miss a match of my favourite team: Bolívar. I have photography as my current hobby.

A couple of years ago I had the crazy idea of visiting 25 European cities in 8 months, best experience ever! Luckly I travelled enough to say that the best part of trips are not the places we find in a travel guide, but the experiences we share with local people and seeing their home towns from their perspective. That's the point of travelling!

Even though I live in La Paz almost all my life and walk through it's crazy and magical streets everyday, somehow it always manages to show me a new amazing point of view. That's why I will never get tired of showing my home town to CSers, just as a way to thank it for all that it has given me. My wife shares the same passion for traveling and for my country.
