One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

First cool moment, being in the highlands of Peru. I went with a crew of 10 people, mostly my friends and hired a bus to take us up to 4000 m.a.s.l and then we started riding back to the coast. We did this for a week ending in a beautiful beach for surfing, fishing and chilling in a pool having a BBQ.

The Second awesome moment could be being in Puno, at 4am sailing the highest sailable lake in the world. I went with a team of 5 designers to understand the needs and live with the local people in floating islands in the lake. We finished by developing a small apparatus to get electricity by movement and help them on their daily tasks.

Finally my last birthday (2011) I went with a friend to scout some mountains and camp for some days. We were supposed to find green everywhere but we woke to see everything covered in the whitest snow. We were walking and we found a farmer who sold me his vintage 1977 Landrover which I drove back to my house. Epic birthday present!
