Where I went to school: Lafayette College
Speaks English and Spanish
20 years ago, Mateo was on a surf trip down the Pacific coast when a detour to El Salvador's El Zonte changed everything. There, he discovered an untamed surf haven filled with dreamers & artists. Captivated by this authentic community, Mateo spontaneously purchased property, making the waves of El Salvador his unexpected home away from home. He still travels the world with his three kids.
