His current ventures include Nomade, an international transformational hotel chain, and Spinoza, an Amsterdam-based startup offering psychedelic programs and products.

Opening quote
“I remember myself being in the shower the night before my father was taking office as the president of Argentina. I was 24 by then and I thought, wow, this is going to be amazing in a way thanking the energy in the universe. But at the same time, I said to myself, this is a perfect moment, but don’t be so sure about perfection because good and bad things might come from this experience.”
