After watching the movie 180º South on an environmental film festival in Buenos Aires, I wanted to help creating the future Patagonia Park on southern Chile, a conservacionist project funded and developed by Conservación Patagónica and the Patagonia clothing brand (Yvon and Doug, two of my favourite climbers, bussinesmen, people).
We apply (Ivi and myself) to be a part in the 2014 volunteer program, but we didn´t make it. There were too many candidates, and just a few positions available.
Truth be told, I was a bit frustrated at first, but still, we applied once again the next year, and a few months later we received an email saying that if we were still interested, they had a couple of places on that year volunteers program waiting for us!
