A space where people can freely interact

Picture this. You wake up to a delicious Mexican breakfast,/u00a0sun is out, it/u2019s 33/u00baC outside. We pick you up and take you/u00a0to a private Hacienda for a mystic mayan ceremony; after a/u00a0short walk in nature you find yourself in a beautiful/u00a0cenote: it/u2019s time to soak in the sun and take a swim, maybe/u00a0even some snorkeling. You get out of the water and a/u00a0Yucatecan lunch prepared by locals is waiting for you. It/u2019s/u00a0time to go back to the city, you get on the bus and back to/u00a0the hotel. Take a siesta or some time for yourself, who/u00a0prefers to explore the city? Walk, some random snaps, or/u00a0discover the local market, fresh fruit is always a good idea. It/u2019s 4pm already and you have to arrive to Sal/u00f3n/u00a0Gallos, our home, a stunning venue with a unique vibe. You/u00a0find yourself in an old flour factory breathing/u00a0inspiration. A unique exhibition welcomes you on the main/u00a0entrance, a wine bar dedicated to all-hands workshops, raw/u00a0lectures, exciting discussions where you can improvise and/u00a0participate, screenings, tattoo art, a coffee shop and/u00a0restaurant full of engaging moments among friends. So many/u00a0inputs. The afternoon goes by unexpectedly fun and/u00a0authenticity. As the late hours follow, you find out this/u00a0is the feeling you/u2019ve been yearning for a long time. Your/u00a0creative soul is nurtured, so you just let yourself go and/u00a0enjoy wherever the night takes you. Tomorrow will be a new/u00a0day in Paradiso and everything can happen. This memory will/u00a0stick with you forever.
