What began as a gap year on a trip around the world, fortuitously ended up becoming the first media adventure of Paco Acedo. After leaving his job as a teacher, Paco embarked on the Underwater Expedition Around the World, a project that led him to exploring diving antarctic waters, becoming trapped by the world of ice. From that moment he focused all his attention on developing projects and expeditions in the polar regions of the planet
A trip is always an opportunity, a window to the real world far from our comfort zone. Sharing it is an obligation
