Preparing an adventure is hard work, a complex and, above all, long job. Sometimes logistical complications or economic needs make it necessary to anticipate and prepare each expedition with months or even years in advance. It is very probable that Paco is in his office at this moment, facing a map, dreaming, doing numbers, looking for coordinates, requesting permits or negotiating with sponsors. An “office” job, but equally exciting, which occupies 80% of the time invested in each expedition
Another important part prior to each adventure is the training, the physical and mental preparation and the testing of materials, especially the ones used to dive under the ice and in extreme conditions. Sometimes creativity, simplification and improvisation are the secret to enjoy each adventure and most importantly, to always return home
