For travelers who don’t rush through the world
A boutique travel design studio creating bespoke journeys in Latin America
Hello, I am Chiara,
Founder
& Latin America Travel Designer
I’m Italian, with a European upbringing and a deep, lasting connection to Latin America. What began as a study-abroad experience slowly became a life shaped by places, people, and cultures far from home.
I studied in Santiago de Chile and later completed a Master’s in Environmental Economics in Sweden. A brief experience with the United Nations made one thing clear: I didn’t want to study life — I wanted to live it.
Over the years I have traveled extensively across Chile, Argentina, Brazil, Costa Rica, Panama, and Nicaragua, building relationships with local guides, communities, and small family-run businesses.
Today I work as a travel designer specializing in bespoke journeys in Latin America, creating itineraries shaped by local knowledge, sustainability, and personal care.
Why Travel Local Club
Travel Local Club was born from a desire to design travel differently.
Over the years, personal exploration evolved into a professional practice: creating journeys that are deeply connected to place, shaped by local knowledge, and designed with intention.
Today, Travel Local Club works through a trusted network of partners who were born and raised in the destinations we explore throughout Latin America. This allows each journey to go beyond standard routes, offering access to experiences that are authentic, respectful, and thoughtfully curated.
We remain intentionally small, focusing on quality, continuity, and personal involvement at every stage of the journey.
Our Approach
Travel Local Club designs bespoke journeys across Latin America
through a personal, thoughtful, and locally rooted approach.
A personal travel design service
Every journey begins with listening. I personally oversee each journey, ensuring a seamless experience shaped around your pace and expectations.
Thoughtfully bespoke
No templates, no predefined packages. Each itinerary is created from scratch, balancing comfort, cultural depth, and meaningful encounters.
Local at heart
We collaborate with local guides, communities, and family-run businesses, believing that true travel connection comes from people who live the place every day.
Responsible by nature
Sustainability is not an add-on, but a foundation. We work with partners who respect ecosystems and communities, creating journeys that give back and leave a positive impact.
Our Manifesto
We believe biodiversity is not only natural, but human.
Cultures, traditions, and ways of life deserve the same respect as landscapes and wildlife.
Our role is to connect travelers with this richness through thoughtfully designed journeys across Latin America, in ways that are conscious, respectful, and mutually beneficial.
