Wilmer

:t:Wilmer travaille comme guide touristique depuis 4 ans et avec des français depuis maintenant 2 ans. Il a appris le français à l'Alliance Française et parle également l'anglais. Avant de commencer sa formation comme guide, il a été chauffeur de bus touristiques pendant presque 10 ans, c’est ainsi qu’il a acquis une très bonne connaissance de tout l’Equateur. Il aime faire découvrir son pays sous ses différents aspects. Originaire de la région de Santo Domingo de Los Colorados, sur le versant Ouest des Andes Centrales, il a été élevé près de la forêt tropicale humide. Il en a conservé un amour de la nature et un savoir étendu de sa faune et de sa flore. Sportif, il pratique le football, comme beaucoup d’équatoriens, mais aussi la course à pied et le VTT. Il est très apprécié pour son sens de l’humour!

Speaks Spanish, English, French
