Blog 2: A forest Ranger




If I were not studying anthropology, I´ll would like to work in the forests of Chile like a ranger, mainly natural reserves in the south. In general you don´t need to have specials skills for this job, but if somebody wants to work in these places, have to get basic knowledge about the natural landscape and to know security measures in cases of emergency. Also whereas the job involves a long time far from the society and the modernity, you must to have much patience. Principally I like this job because it is near to the nature and you get peace of mind, isolated of the stress and the contamination. Obviously the disadvantage is the communication with the rest of the world (specially your family and friends), and if something bad occurs, can be very complicated establish contact for assistance.
Now if you want to apply for the job, is not difficult. You have to register your personal data in the CONAF website´s, which you find the several natural places where you could to work.
