Our story

From Paris and Trento to Verona, by way of Valparaíso

She is from Trento and Verona, he is from Paris. In 2019 they each set off on a Nomad MBA: studying around the world, and looking to find themselves again. Neither was looking for the other; and yet that is where it all began.

A Nomad MBA, classes between stopovers and a group from every corner of the world. Our paths crossed on the Chilean coast.

The journey

The Atacama desert, Machu Picchu, Colombia’s Caribbean coast. Three countries, a close-knit group, and two people growing closer at every stop.
