Estábamos a la hora indicada en las cercanías, le mandamos un mensaje para avisar en donde nos encontrábamos y luego fuimos al punto de encuentro indicado, esperamos hasta las 11.30 y nunca respondió nuestros mensajes. Sin contar que el clima era bastante inconveniente por el frío y la llovizna, si no iba a llegar el guía podría haber avisado o al menos responder alguno de nuestros mensajes. Una lástima

Facundo emana por los poros de sus jóvenes 22 años todo el amor por su tierra mendocina, la epopeya del ejército libertador, de su gran capitán Don José de San Martín. Comprometido con brindar a quienes lo elijan todo y más. Dos horas y medias en el Cerro de La gloria que me llenaron el cuore no solo por aprender mucho de lo que desconocía, sino por conocer a Facundo, sus proyectos de juventud, de crecimiento y de superación..No dejes de vivir la experiencia. Se que facundo y su emprendimiento seguirán desplegando sus alas como el Cóndor!!

La emoción y las ganas con las que cuenta la historia te atrapa, lo que hizo que el grupo terminara siendo de alrededor de 20 personas. Un genio
