Biography & Thoughts

I was born and raised in the argentine-welsh Esquel area, flyfishing and guiding thru all the summers I can remember. I truly enjoy life outdoors and meeting people from all around. I'm 29 years old with 12 of experience, ready to show you personally the wonders of patagonia and to make your trip unnique. You book with me, you fish with me!
