ABOUT THE TEAM

 
Digsan Suarez – Tour Republic
Digsan Suárez
Chief Operations Officer
With a special talent for creating fun around him and connecting with people, tourism expert and bartender Digsan Suarez is dedicated to find the perfect adventure for those visiting Cuba. After graduating from Business Administration in Tourism Management, Digsan began working as self-employed in the island. Now living in the United States and with a long-time friend, Enmanuel Tirado, he has decided to combine his knowledge about tourism with his experience of the challenges Cuban entrepreneurs face to launch their businesses, and create Tour Republic: for tourists, the place to go to find unique outings, and for entrepreneurs, the online platform to help launch their businesses.

Lizandra Diaz
Content Manager
Radio ninja. Storyteller. Proud vampire lover. Avid explorer. Social media frenemy. Entrepreneur. Lizandra has longed to see world since she can remember. When the idea to found Tour Republic came to her, she thought maybe showing others her own piece of the world was the way to start. She said, yes, and the rest is history…in the making. She juggles her 7-years job as a journalist and radio host with her responsibilities in Tour Republic, because she thinks people should keep exploring new horizons. Before this, she majored in Broadcast Journalist at Florida International University in Miami. And before that, she was in her beloved city of Sancti Spiritus, Cuba, dreaming of doing all this. She is still dreaming bigger dreams, but that is a story for another time.
