«My name is Ismael Paineo and my story begins when I was young and I traveled to Santiago in search of a job. I arrived at a bakery, a business in which I was very successful, until I obtained the position of boss in a very short time. Then I resigned and returned to the field, to develop myself in different areas to take better advantage of the terrain. Thank God, I made a plan of tourist activities, present it in the Imperial Municipality, and I started working in tourism until today «
