My journey as an educator and curator began in Cuban university classrooms, where I faced the challenge of limited internet access for my students. This situation propelled me to seek creative solutions, curating and organizing content on international tourism practice, such as reports, videos, and infographics from leading companies and institutions in the sector. This initiative aimed not only at complement theoretical knowledge with current and holistic practices from the tourism world but also to make it accessible via CD-ROM.
In 2011, I emigrated with my family to Spain, where, driven by the same passion for sharing and democratizing knowledge, I founded “Tourism, Capturing the Scene of Knowledge, Tourism CSK”. This website is the culmination of years of dedication to education and consultancy, designed to bridge theory and practice, and a space where information transcends borders, connecting professionals and students with the real pulse of international tourism.

The inception of Tourism, Capturing The Scene of Knowledge, was driven by a significant market failure: infobesity and infotoxicity in the tourism sector. This overwhelming abundance of content, often ephemeral and scattered, made it challenging for professionals and students to access relevant and practical information.
We are here to combat the “dragons” of infobesity and infotoxicity by offering a curated oasis of relevant content. The idea to create a “big showcase” on the website stems from the necessity to sift through the excess information, providing direct access to quality content hosted by the original producers.
The unwavering passion of founded for education and knowledge sharing is at the core of this project. Being obsessed with making international tourism knowledge accessible, the creation of this website was not just an option but a necessity. This platform is the culmination of a commitment to both education and practical tourism, bridging theory and reality in a unique space.
The outcome of this project, Tourism, Capturing The Scene of Knowledge, is a centralized, carefully curated platform that directly addresses the challenges of infobesity and infotoxicity. It makes a significant impact by simplifying access to high-quality, relevant tourism content, distinguishing itself in a crowded digital landscape.
