For Mexico:

Maria Borem
STEWARDESS
Maria was born in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. She used to be a world traveler and became passionate about hospitality during her trips. One day, she realized that delivering a high end hospitality service herself could fulfill her professionally. Soon she left her career in Marketing to follow this new path, starting out as a receptionist at a resort in Baja California. Once in Baja and swimming for the first time with dolphins, sea lions, sharks and whales; Maria fell for the rich marine life of the peninsula. She found a way to be even closer to the ocean becoming a hostess on dive liveaboards and gained valuable onboard hospitality experience. Now, Maria is our stewardess on the Mardiosa and is happy she can give personalized attention to each one of our guests while they enjoy the marine life of Baja themselves.
