Almost 8 years ago I left Guatemala thinking it would be a 6-month trip.
Today, after living in Colombia, Mexico, Argentina, Brazil and Spain, I'm heading back home.
I left looking for three things: new ways of thinking, new business models and access to new markets.
I found all three. And a lot more.
Today I'm amazed by everything I learned, everything I know and the goals I have. Goals I would never have set if I had stayed. Your mindset changes when you're exposed every day to different ways of living, working and doing business.
I decided to move back to Guatemala for a while for two reasons:
1. To be close to my family and friends.
2. To focus on expanding my business in the US and serving US clients.
Thank you to every city, every person and every challenge that shaped me over these years.
Today I'm more than ready for the new challenges ahead.
And here's a photo with the youngest member of the family, my nephew Felipe.
