A soft spoken and private man, Federico Magri has a passion for Argentinian land and culture. He is an avid explorer, with a particular love for El Bolsón. On top of this, he is an expert social media content advisor. Through Magri's explorations and sharing his adventures on social media, he is able to provide a precious glimpse at the unique experiences the country has to offer. When asked about his mission, he put it simply, "I want to share my love for the majestic El Bolsón and Patagonia with others. I want to encourage others to explore the outdoors in Argentina. Trekking in Patagonia is the perfect way to start. Start in one of the best places in the world."
