Europe Trip Leader

Sofia Jaldo

Sofia is an Andalusian to the core, and has a great love of her home city of Granada in southern Spain. As a graduate of the University of Granada in Technical Architecture, she shares her time between restoring heritage buildings in the historic city center and spending time in the outdoors—mountain biking, hiking, and climbing—she enjoys a bit of everything! She also loves traveling and has trekked in India, the Dolomites, and the Pyrenees, as well as toured parts of Cuba and Portugal by bicycle. She says that meeting people from other cultures opens her mind and heart, and finds that working as a Trip Leader is the perfect combination of all of her passions—incredible architecture, amazing landscapes, outdoor adventure, and meeting fellow travelers. When she’s not at the helm, you’ll likely find her at the end of the group ready to give you an energetic push!
