About CumPanis

Carina RenPhD, Founder

With more than 15 years of experience with research, collaboration and development with public, private and community actors, CumPanis Advisory offers knowledge, insights and consultation to help places, businesses and communities live well through and with tourism. 

Cum Panis (latin): literally 'with bread'. As the etymology of 'companion,' CumPanis derives from the idea of sharing bread. The notion of companionship is our philosophy and guiding light in developing tourism and destinations.
