Hi I'm Paula. Santiago is a city that never stops surprising me and I love being part of its rhythm. From the breathtaking backdrop of the Andes to the lively streets filled with cafés, bars, and cultural spaces, there’s always something new to experience. You’ll often find me wandering through neighborhoods like Lastarria or Providencia, tracing their history in old architecture and hidden landmarks before settling into a favorite spot for a meal or drink. I’m passionate about the city’s art and cultural scene - from museums and theaters to folkloric traditions - and I equally enjoy escaping to the hills to enjoy nature, flora, and fauna. For me, sharing these contrasts is what makes guiding in Santiago so rewarding.
