Juan Pablo Thourte, aka as JP, was born and raised in Buenos Aires where he obtained a degree in Marketing & Advertising. His first jobs were in the corporate-related marketing field, where he gained a great experience amongst the ‘big guys’, but at the age of 25, he felt the call of carving his own path and left his well-settled life in Buenos Aires in search of adventure in Patagonia.

He moved to San Martin de los Andes with his wife to start a small advertising agency and, eventually, a family too. Life in Patagonia was challenging back then yet incredibly rewarding specially for his then young offsprings: Iki, Valu and Fafa. Nowadays, with three grown-up children in college and an extensive career in graphic and web design, event organisation, and teaching, a new turn has led him towards an even more Southernly destination, Antarctica.

JP’s strongest assets are in communication and design and the Antarctica Travels team couldn’t be more excited to have him leading our e-marketing strategy, communications and most importantly taking care of our brand aesthetics and development.

JP’s biggest passion will always remain in arts, music and sharing a life full with a loving family and friends, mixed between his Buenos Aires ‘querido’ and San Martín de los Andes.
