Jeffrey Munoz·Naturalist/Certified Photo Instructor
Jeffrey was born in San Jose, Costa Rica. He studied biosciences at the University of Costa Rica and later at the National Learning Institute, where he earned his certification as a general naturalist guide for Costa Rica. His first travels abroad to the United States and South America taught him the importance of being conscious of other cultures. This awareness is what led him to want to educate people about his own culture and into the field of ecotourism. He started working as a guide in early 1998 because he wanted to be closer to nature as well as to the Costa Rican people. These experiences, as well as his travels to Canada, Ecuador, Europe, Brazil, Argentina, Peru, Chile, Panama and Nicaragua made him aware of the importance of nature, its conservation, and the world’s cultural heritage.
