In it you will find an easy-to-read text and numerous images, based on the experience of Juan Carlos Casado. The author has traveled the globe from the poles to the equator in search of the most spectacular natural phenomena.

Undoubtedly, thanks to this book, the reader and the future traveler will enjoy the preparation of his expeditions, during their course and with their results.
