Get to know me
My family and I have explored Patagonia for as long as I can remember. Camping, hiking, kayaking, skiing and everything we could do to explore nature, we did. I believe that those family trips are the reason behind my passion for nature and wildlife.
I spent many years exploring the mountains and rivers and hidden gems of Bariloche in Patagonia and its surroundings while guiding horseback riding tours for travellers from all over the world. After that, I moved on to Llao Llao, one of the most luxurious hotels in the area, where I worked in customer service.
A few years later, I began teaching – yes, I know, a huge pivot, right?! I taught in different places and to different age groups, and I learned to be extra patient, multitask and focus on people’s needs above all.

My top 5 Antarctic experiences
In Antarctica
- Spotting a giant tabular iceberg – it made me feel so small! It was awe-inspiring and utterly magical
- Watching penguins waddle their way down snowy slopes – they were so sweet and comical
- Seeing whales breach as my zodiac cruised through one of the most beautifully untouched places on the planet
- Witnessing the breathtaking sight of glaciers up close. I still look back at the photos and can't believe I was lucky enough to experience such an amazing view
- Realising that there’s no way to anticipate the unique beauty of the ice until you see it in person
