Who I am and what I do
I am Victor Gaete
Angel and I study Chemical Engineering
at Universidad Catolica del
Norte.
Expedition role
My role in this expedition
is to help with the logistics during
the main ascent
to the Volcano, because in this expedition
is involved a lot of scientific equipment
and porters who will carry all the
equipment to the summit. Although this
is not a
technical mountain, that amount of
people makes the coordination very important
to guaranty the safety of everyone.
What
made study science?
I study Chemical Engineering
because it always seemed an area where
is was
possible
to work with new things, and search
for reliable methods of development
that could produce a impact in the environment
and
to improve the actual processes of
industrial
work.
Family, hobbies, interest, etc.
I am one
of three brothers in my family. My main
activity, aside of
studying,
is to practice mountaineering,
I also practice
sport climbing, play guitar, bass
and some piano.
Parting words for
students and teachers?
Enjoy your youth
and travel through the world, exploring
it, exploring
it all
safely. To the teachers, encourage
your students
in their search for knowledge. |
