At Serendipity Adventures, we take pride in not only crafting tailormade travel experiences but also nurturing the next generation of tourism professionals. Over the last two months, we have had the privilege of hosting Mariana Zúñiga Madriz, a student from CTP La Suiza, who joined us for an internship focused on Rural Community Tourism.
A Vision for San Antonio de Santa Cruz
¡Hola! Soy Mariana, estudiante de Turismo Rural del CTP La Suiza. Tuve la oportunidad de hacer mi práctica en Serendipity Adventures y desarrollar un proyecto de Turismo Rural Comunitario enfocado en el pueblo de San Antonio; con el objetivo de darle visibilidad a todo lo que envuelve a la comunidad, principalmente al Turismo Rural, pero también a su historia y belleza natural.”
Mariana’s internship revolved around promoting the charm and heritage of our hometown, San Antonio de Santa Cruz. Her goal was to spotlight the town’s natural beauty, rich history, and local culture. San Antonio, a picturesque village, offers visitors a chance to experience Costa Rica’s authentic rural lifestyle.
Her dedication to this project went beyond research; she engaged deeply with the locals, learning their stories and traditions. Her work has not only raised awareness but also strengthened the bond between San Antonio de Santa Cruz and the tourism community.
The Serendipity Adventures team was delighted to support Mariana’s endeavors. Her enthusiasm and fresh perspective enriched our understanding of Rural Tourism. As she expressed, “Agradezco muchísimo al equipo de Serendipity, que me acogió y me brindó su apoyo en estos dos meses de práctica profesional.”
Mariana’s internship culminated in a comprehensive project that we believe will bring long-term benefits to San Antonio and its residents.
As we bid farewell to Mariana, we celebrate her achievements and look forward to seeing her career flourish. Thank you, Mariana, for being part of our team over the last few months. We can’t wait to see how your journey continues!
