About Me

About Me
I am based in San Cristobal de las Casas, Chiapas, Mexico but I can also advise on Oaxaca, Campeche, Yucatan, Quintana Roo, Mexico City, Puebla, and Morelos. I am an English – Mexican (English father, Mexican mother) born in Mexico City and raised mainly in Huitzilac and Cuernavaca, in the state of Morelos (south of Mexico City).  I have had the opportunity to travel in 25 states of the 31 states in Mexico, mainly visiting national parks and other protected areas. In the year 2001 I founded a website promoting ecotourism in protected areas called Ecoturismolatino .  I have worked for the National Commission in Protected Natural Areas (CONANP) for Mexico as national advisor in tourism in protected areas.  Nowadays, I work as an independent consultant for ecotourism, community tourism and nature tourism enterprises in Chiapas, Veracruz and Oaxaca. Presently, I live in San Cristobal de las Casas, Chiapas with my family where I enjoy taking walks around the historical center and hiking in nearby natural reserves. What I love about my home town, San Cristobal de las Casasit, is the possibility of going to a restaurant to try some local or international food (French, Argentinean, Italian) and spend a lovely afternoon with friends and interacting with the owners and/or chefs talking about food, wine and life in general.
