Our Team

What makes our team special?

Oriunda was founded by María Dolores “Loli” Marino in 2008 inspired by her passion for travelling after eleven years of corporate career in Unilever Argentina. Since then, “Loli”, has had a thorough commitment to provide access to original and unique insights and to-know-first-hand before recommending. With this vision in mind, she has built this outstanding team of passionate, gregarious and skilled local professionals.

As a soul traveller and globetrotter

I invite you to feel our land in your own flesh and bones... You will surely realize that this is a destination for life, you will crave to repeat the experience.

“I love the smell of an asado/barbecue while I’m walking around the city, especially the one out of my favourite parrilla in Buenos Aires: “La Brigada”, also the scent of jasmines blossoming in the flower shops and the after rain smell.Over and above, I fancy the multiplicity of the art scene. Doing the math on the amount of amazing exhibitions on display in BA at the same time every now and then. The cultural offer is superb.”

“In Buenos Aires, every neighbourhood has its own personality, we have the impression that we are visiting many cities at the same time. The lively cultural life is reflected in the vast choice of theatres, cinemas, festivals and artistic events that launch our artists and the Argentine cinema to the world.”

“I have a weakness for bars, bookstores and picturesque hidden corners in any city, to experience the everyday life of the locals. Buenos Aires is a paradise in that sense. To wonder around its neighbourhoods and visit any of the many remarkable cafes isa "must do" in your visit to BA.”

Aldana

Ana

“I love discovering the singular side of Buenos Aires through the art that the walls reveal and what’s behind: the social expression, the history and the artists in person. Get ready to know the identity of the city through the Street Art!.”

CORPORATE

Creating Memorable Experiences

Since 2008, Loli Marino contributes to the IAE Business School as a facilitator in the Outdoor Programmes. This, together with her former corporate career (Worked for 11 years at Unilever Argentina), make companies ask for assistance in creating exceptional and innovative team building experiences, out of the box activities for team leaders, and high end hospitality for clients from abroad. This is one of the main reasons why Oriunda Corporate was created.

All our expertise in the delicate task of pleasing and surprising, travelling throughout Argentina and neighbouring countries to guarantee the best hosts and vendors, and creating memorable experiences makes an ultimate difference in the corporate market.

We are thrilled with each opportunity! Every company is different, every experience is unique. Combining the ideal places to awaken creativity, creating the wow factor, promoting effective and solid professional bonds in a relaxing atmosphere. And of course, taking care of the tough part: coordination, logistics, schedules, last-minutes, and every single detail to make it flawless.

This is what we do, and we are awesome at it.
