In 1998 he moved to live and work on the large island of Chiloé, specifically in the Pumalín Park project (current National Park) , along with ecologist Douglas R. Tompkins, with whom he worked closely until 2015.

In 2001 he settled in the city of Puerto Varas, where he established his workshop-office, and began to work in a private way with the Tompkins Conservation Foundation.
