Guide Bio
My first steps were back in 2002 when I was part of the volunteer crew, working with teenagers, involved in programs related with the development of their outdoor skills and environmental education; all this mostly was at the Central Andes Mountain Range (I was studying Forestry Engineering at that time). 2003 I had the chance to take a course on outdoor leadership with Raleigh Expedition Org (UK) during 12 weeks down south in Aysen Region Patagonia, divided in 3 phases as: 1st Hiking and kayaking, 2nd Scientific field works and 3rd social and community works.
Once the course was over and the experience fully embraced I decided to stay exploring the Lake district region place that I had chose to study Ecoturism, here it was that I became the Tour guide who I am today, taking people from all over the globe into several areas, diverse ecosystems, activities and experiences. As well everyone knows life never stops spinning and as a traveller myself I had to make the big decision to move to New Zealand country where I spent 4 amazing years of my life (2008-2012), learning about other cultures, English and Maori, exploring also, living in the south island.
I settled down in the City of Nelson, here I´ve gotten a job as a Guide for Flying Kiwi Company during the high season among other several jobs that I became to do as well, my own music projects were part of that too. After this my adventurer’s soul background and itchy feet told me to keep moving and travelling so I went to Australia, I visited Thailand to practice one of my favorite sports rock climbing, and again I did the same in France and Spain.
Back in the here and now at present time I am back in Chile living in Chiloe Island but also spending time in Santiago working as a freelance guide for some companies and also working in the development of my own. I am ready to show and share with you all the best spots along this narrow and long territory full of contrast, outstanding landforms and landscapes, history, culture, colorful people and much more, guarantee that it will be in the most passionate, professional and eco-friendly way as it can possibly can be.
