Bio


Santiago Yanez is one of the world's greatest adventurers. When he is not doing search and rescue on the highest peak in the Americas, biking from Argentina to Alaska, or running in the Pan Am Games, this Argentinean stallion is out helping those who need it. The only thing bigger than his adventures is his heart. All those who meet him are touched by compassion and motivated by his courage.

Up to last year, Santiago was a full-time graduate student at the Global Resource Systems Department at University of British Columbia, Canada. Now he lives in Vancouver, where he has continued with his passion of tango and photography.
