  Description

  My name is Oscar, I am 34 years old, I have an eco-tourism project that I want to develop in my small town, and my goal is to work with the children, youth and elderly of my town to somehow diversify their economy, in addition to contributing somehow in its development. My town is small, where everyone is dedicated to agriculture and livestock, many products are produced, it is very quiet. People are very friendly and affectionate towards foreigners. I am sure you will have a very pleasant time.
