“From Science to the Sea: A Journey to Inspire and Serve”
Hi, I'm Fabián, Cuban by birth and a dreamer by nature. My story begins in Havana, in a family where nothing was ever left over, but where I learned that dignity, perseverance, and the desire to excel can be stronger than any scarcity.

For years, I faced many material shortcomings, but I also learned not to give up. Thanks to my hard work and the solidarity of those around me, I managed to train as a biochemist and molecular biologist. Later, I earned a master's degree in biophysics and am currently pursuing a doctorate in neuroscience.

However, life has led me to discover a new passion: tourism and purposeful travel. Today, I dream of making a career transition and becoming a Purser on luxury yachts, combining my love of cultures, languages, and personalized service.

I want to provide unforgettable experiences for those who travel, and also build bridges that bring people, dreams, and stories closer together.

To achieve this, I need to fund my maritime training: certified yacht crew courses, luxury tourism training, and nautical hospitality training.

That's why I'm turning to this platform, with humility and hope. Your contribution not only helps me fulfill a personal dream, but will also be a seed that will germinate in the lives of many others. I want to use my new career to give back to the world, helping others achieve their dreams through travel.

Thank you for being part of this journey.
