A Word From Shin

 

I’ve been snowboarding over 2/3 of my life. My love of travel has led me to snowboard and experience many different regions of the world that has mountains and snow. Some of my favorite places include Alaska, most of British Columbia Canada, Russia, Austria and especially South America. That’s why I have jumped to the opportunity to help show others some of my favorite places.

Argentina and Chile have great mountains and snow conditions when up north in Canada or the USA its summertime. For the powder hungry person The Andes are always a great place to continue the endless winter. That’s why I’ve joined up with PowderQuest who’ve been doing these type of adventures for many years. Whenever I’ve been there recently I always hook up with them because we have a great trip. We’ve stayed at great places, eaten great meals and above all had great powder in the infamous Andes.

 

Let’s hope this year is no different!!

See you soon,

Shin Campos
