I began working in tourism in 1989 at one of the most alternative travel agencies in Spain.
Just two years later, I changed my path and moved to the airline sector, which allowed me to travel the world.
In 1995, I was offered the opportunity to represent ICELANDAIR, the national airline of Iceland, a country that, at the time, was as wonderful as it was unknown in the Spanish market. I served as the Commercial Director for Spain and Portugal for 12 years.
This is where my passion for the country began, a passion we hope to share through our trips with Islandia66.
I am responsible for maintaining an updated offer for the ICELAND destination, but with one difference: we only offer routes and accommodations that we have personally experienced and visited, always striving to preserve the essence of the country.

In 1998, I earned my degree as a Tourism Business and Activities Specialist. The first stage of my professional career was linked to airlines. I started at Madrid Barajas Airport with PGA Portugalia, the Portuguese airline, and later «flew» to the Finnish airline Finnair, where I became fascinated by Nordic culture after 9 years of working and traveling through those countries.
Thanks to this «attraction» to the Nordic countries and my contacts with colleagues and friends who are experts in these areas, the opportunity to join the Islandia66 team arose in 2015.
Since then, I have been responsible for managing quotes and reservations for personalized programs, assisting and advising both travelers directly and our partner travel agencies.
Thanks to our continuous trips to Iceland, I carry in my «suitcase» images of more than 200 accommodations I have visited and many activities I have personally experienced. This is why I love handling reservations and offering them in our trips to Iceland.
I hope you enjoy our selection of Islandia66 accommodations!

ISLANDIA66 was officially born at the end of 2007.
We had been organizing trips for many years (since 1989) for tourism professionals and industry journalists, as well as friends. However, it was only at that point that we decided to launch our own project.
We want to take this opportunity to thank all our friends, journalists, collaborators, and tourism professionals who encouraged us to do so, due to the lack of EXPERTS in this destination, ICELAND, at that time.
The idea for the logo came from combining various symbols that have impacted us during our travels. In Asia, we encountered the well-known black and white circle of Yin/Yang, or taijitu. In Mongolia, we were surprised by a similar symbol but divided into three sections/energies. Finally, on the Camino de Santiago, we came across the Celtic Triskele, which represents balance.
Why the horse?
Because of a deep passion for this animal, symbolized by Sleipnir, Odin’s horse from Norse mythology. Sleipnir was gray with eight legs, allowing him to travel by land, sea, and air.
Why 66?
66ºN latitude, the parallel that crosses northern Iceland.
