About me

Hi, I’m Ivan Madrigal! Since 2004, I’ve worked hard in call centers and digital businesses, mastering marketing and sales while connecting with people from all walks of life. I love spending time with family, exploring Costa Rica’s hidden gems, and diving into mysteries like UFOs. When I’m not out on an adventure, you’ll find me enjoying TV shows or planning the next unforgettable experience for my guests. My favorite places are going to the mountains, in el Carmen Guadalupe, check our properties, go to the beach at Jaco, and party around San Jose downtown. I like going to bars in Barrio Escalante and also the National Theatre. Plus visits to the local Museums and attend many events that I know about culture and arts.

A day with me includes

The Renaissance Man: Virgo Discipline Meets Dragon Fire exploring culture, history and more fun at San Jose, Guadalupe, Moravia, San Pedro or Coronado.

The urban sprawl of San José, extending from its vibrant downtown core into the dynamic suburbs of San Pedro, Guadalupe, Moravia, and the mountain freshness of Coronado, offers a surprisingly rich tapestry of experiences for the discerning professional seeking cultural depth, local history, and intellectual stimulation. This is not the purely touristic Costa Rica of zip lines and beaches, but a deeper exploration of the nation’s cultural heart and capital city life. PORTAFOLIO OF EXPERIENCES CAN BE: 1- Morning walk at UCR (Campus & Market Study), followed by a high-end lunch in Barrio Escalante to discuss global Crypto and Personal Finance trends. 2- Guided walk through Barrio Amón and the National Museum, focusing on Local History and the political Mysteries of the Civil War, ending at a quiet spot for Ovni discussions. 3-A morning sourcing specialized materials in Guadalupe or Moravia (discussing Engineering/Home Repairs), followed by an afternoon at the Jade and Gold Museums to study ancient artistry and design.
