My introduction

I am Gabriel Esquivel, Founder, Director, General Coordinator and Instructor of NORTHLATITUDE (C.A.C.E.N) National and International Argentine Center of Education and Training, where in January of the year 2005, I taught my first course in Argentina.

In the year 1998 I began to venture into the environment of mountaineering and trekking and in 2003, I started on designing my own project with the purpose of educating individuals on Survival and Orientation skills, in Spanish and English languages and, having taught the first course in 2005, over the years, those teachings that I have been carrying out at the national level, systematically and gradually began to spread in the international level. NORTHLATITUDE is comprised of a group of instructors, including civilians and military personnel of the Argentine Air Force, currently retired and our objective is to provide you with a comprehensive teaching comprised of international quality standards in order you can objectively meet your requirements and expectations and this is possible because we have the ideal human and professional resources to carry it out through the teaching of courses of «SURVIVAL for EXTREME ENVIRONMENTS with notions of First Aid, Orientation and Land Navigation”, «ORIENTATION, LAND NAVIGATION and GPS with Cartography», “SEARCH and RESCUE (SAR)», «MOUNTAINEERING and TREKKING» and the «MULTIADVENTURE», which includes a combination of activities comprised by the Skydiving + Survival + First Aid + Orienteering. About the First Aid classes, they are taught as notions involved within the PENTAGON OF SURVIVAL that we use to teach the Survival courses, not as a specific course. The practices of our trainings take place entirely in wild and hostile terrain of jungle areas, forests, deserts, islands, mountains or others, all the year round.

I was born in the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires (C.A.B.A) and since 1984 I am military personnel of the Argentine Air Force by primary profession, currently (R) with the rank of Petty Officer and I belong to the XXIV Promotion of the E.S.F.A.E. (Non-commissioned officer (NCO) military school) and after getting my promotion I made multiple studies and training as a computer scientist, English language, personnel leadership and human groups, modern oratory, political influences of the United States and South America, international geopolitics and Argentina, evolution and development of modern military history, diplomatic, official and ceremonial protocol in public relationships, abbreviated national defense, philosophy, drawing, survival, orientation, mountaineering, trekking and crossings, first aid and others. In the Air Force my specialty is Systems, Computing and Statistics, where upon graduation I was assigned to the former VII Air Brigade of helicopters located in the Moron city and later, I was assigned to the Condor Building which is the headquarters of the General Staff of the Argentine Air Force (E.M.G.F.A.A.), Direction of Operational Informatics (an annex of electronic warfare), Direction of Systems (currently General Direction of Research and Development), National Radar Plan, where for two months I was assigned to the Ezeiza Airport as professor of some radar operators of a flight plan control system at the A.C.C (Air Control Center), software that had been acquired from a Canadian company, Direction of Personnel (D.G.P.), Air Region Command (C.R.A.) and lately, to the Direction of Communications (D.I.C.O.M). In addition, I participated in the design of graphics (drawings) of consoles for the national air traffic control and in the years 1996 and 1997, I studied only those years of Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Science at a well-known private University of Buenos Aires where at the beginning of 1998, when I no longer received the half scholarship to continue with my studies, I decided to change books for travels. For this reason, in 1998 I gradually began my first steps in the mountaineering and trekking world, having participated in several expeditions that took place in the provinces of Buenos Aires, Mendoza, Neuquen and Cordoba, where, in addition, I visited beautiful places of the Argentine Patagonia, having made various trekking and crossings in beautiful glaciers such as the Perito Moreno, Cerro Torre and Martial and approaches to others such as Huemul, etc. As far as my experience in mountaineering is concerned, I could reach just a few summits, being the highest one the Vallecitos hill at 5,470 m.a.s.l. (Meters Above Sea Level), on January 17 of the year 2003, although I did do many treks. Also, one of the reasons why I decided to join the world of mountaineering was because I had previously thought about being a skydiver like my mother’s cousin Zulma Gladys Esquivel (R.I.D.), I mean, my uncle-cousin Daniel Esquivel (R.I.P), world champion skydiver with other national and international achievements made and, since it wasn’t possible for me to be a skydiver and as I saw the skydiver carry their container (backpack) with their parachutes sails (canopies) on their backs, the way I replaced the skydiving with another outdoor activity was the mountaineering, that is, to carry out a mountain backpack on my back during the mountain expeditions instead of a skydiving backpack. That is why, after having studied for many years, in the year 1998 I was invited to take part in a trip to be made in a mountain area located in the Buenos Aires province and this new experience was a turning point in my life because it was a significant change, a before and a after, a new paradigm that I saw myself on the horizon of my future because precisely, having intensified my presence in nature, that situation allowed me to make the decision in a few years to design a project to start teaching courses where it has become the reality of what NORTHLATITUDE is currently today in Argentina and in the international world.

The continuous dedication and effort that I that I’ve been doing for many years, I consider is a positive factor that naturally allowed me to gain a high level of prestige and recognition in the national and international world, for example, for having been selected during for (4) periods in the years 2015, 2017 and 2018, by the well-known DISCOVERY CHANNEL international network, to be a survival instructor and technical advisor in Argentina for some of its international television programs, having been chosen by Discovery of Mexico, England and Argentina, among other achievements such as acting in the role of survival instructor in international cinema, precisely for the PARABELLUM film, directed by an Austrian film director and presented in 40 international film festivals, including the Mar del Plata International Film Festival of Argentina.

In response to frequent questions that many students of mine asked me about how it was the beginning to teach courses, well, I told them that there were two reasons to start NORTHLATITUDE, being that for this, I took as a reference two good examples, first of all that my mother’s cousin Zulma Gladys Esquivel (R.I.P), my uncle-cousin Daniel Esquivel (R.I.P), who in 1974 was world champion of skydiving with many other national and international achievements obtained, added to his quality as a great person and secondly, my military education in the Argentine Air Force, when I was assigned to the former VII Air Brigade located in the Moron city in Buenos Aires, I met many comrades, true commando specialists, some VGM (Malvinas War Veterans) as well as other as pilots, mechanics, instrumentalists, air system operators (O.S.E.A), etc., certainly very professionals whom I always admired with great respect.

About my family background, I was born in the Central Aeronautical Hospital of the Argentine Air Force in the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires (C.A.B.A), my growth, education and primary studies were integrally made in three cities of Buenos Aires, in El Palomar, Haedo and Ramos Mejia, where I keep the best memories of those places because there I was educated and made many friendships from the neighborhoods, from the school and apart from my family. I attended the primary school at the Sagrado Corazon de Jesus EMAUS, located in the city of Haedo, considered at the time one of the best schools in Buenos Aires, although I finished the last and seventh grade at the San Carlos Borromeo school, also located in Haedo and in the 90’s, I lived for a few years in Palermo (C.A.B.A), just in front of the Lawn Tennis Club.

I grew up in a family comprised by my father Oscar (R.I.P) who was a military personnel in the Argentine Air Force, born in Diamante city, in the province of Entre Rios, and my mother Zulma Gladys Esquivel (R.I.P), born in the Casilda city, in the province of Santa Fe, educated in the city of Ramos Mejia, who had raised in a high class family of industrialist (my grandfather had been an industrialist, as he stated in my parents’ marriage certificate) and my mother, who gave birth to three sons, me, being the oldest and my younger brothers, Sergio Christian (R.I.P) and Claudio, due to life circumstances, it was our mother who educated us very well because from her we received the best education, based on values of work, sacrifice, effort, humility, study, etc., because since we were very young, she continuously educated us with a great love like her father (my grandfather), her uncles (my great-uncles) and her cousins (my uncles-cousins), had not only received a very good education to be ever united and together if not, they had ever worked tirelessly looking for a way to create, elaborate, improve and optimize resources to improve and offer the best product they sell, who with the sacrifice made for years, they has been leaders in the market and this was what we received as a legacy of example from my mother and that I particularly take as a reference.

This is the message that I still keep and obeys to the family, cultural and hereditary biological guideline that I follow as a son because my mother tirelessly educated us with clear, defined and marked detail, many stories, strategies, secrets, behaviors and other very important industrial topics carried out, something for what I particularly understood and I turned it into information that I systematized for my own purposes. I always keep the memory of the particular affection of education, advice and love received by my maternal grandparents, Pedro Angel Esquivel (R.I.P) and Clara Yannone (R.I.P), both from the city of Casilda in the province of Santa Fe, who eventually moved and lived in the city of Ramos Mejia (in whose church in that city my parents were married), the city of my mother, aunts and grandparents. Also my affections and memories of my great-uncles Chiquita de Benbenga (R.I.P) and Pepe (R.I.P.), who years ago, opportunely helped us.

On another family order, I am a nephew-cousin on my mother’s side cousin, Prince Pedro Giannone Ischitella, a former Argentine priest received in Italy, who opportunely had access to the Vatican, who currently resides in Brussels, Belgium and who with authentic documents from archives of the years 1200 and 1800, it accredit us to be of noble origin for being one of the last descendants of the Giannone de Majoribus family, Noble Patricians of Bitonto, Barons of Loseto, Counts Palatine of Acri, from the ancient and most noble Caracciolo family, descendants of the dynasty of the Cumae. This is part of the context of information about the biological-cultural roots of my ancestors and my current family, being that, although that our government does not officially recognize that an Argentine citizen is noble or recognized as such, they cannot intervene in the private world to which we belong. Pedro speaks 14 languages and has access to the Royal Palace of Laeken, the official residence of the Belgian sovereigns, according to the latest communication he sent me.

Returning to NORTHLATITUDE, over the years it has been growing gradually and exponentially due to certain strategic decisions that I needed to carry out and based on this, through the years we were selected to provide trainings to students of the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires (C.A.B.A) mostly and from other provinces of Argentina as well as from countries from South America, Central America, North America, Africa and Europe as well, including schools, scout groups, national and international companies, civil, military and security institutions, international consultancies, as well as for the TED (Technology, Entertainment and Design) conferences of the United States, by the Victorinox Swiss knife company in Argentina, etc. We also were chosen by companies, schools and international institutions from Mexico, Colombia, Ecuador and Peru to teach courses in various wild and hostile terrains of those countries, which includes a survival course that I attended as student in the United States where also, I recently traveled to Holland (Netherlands) in Europe, in order to carry out a commercial mission where in addition, together with a survival instructor from that country, we carried out some practices in survival and orientation techniques.                                                                                                                                                                

It is with particular pleasure to post the Resolution belonging to the Academic Secretary of the DRAGONES DEL GOLFO International School of Colombia, where shows the the certification and academic endorsement given to NORTHLATITUDE (C.A.C.E.N) National and International Argentine Center of Education and Training, of which I am its Founder and Director in view that our courses not only have international validity but also have the international endorsement and support of the aforementioned Colombian school of which NORTHLATITUDE is an International Delegation and keeps an strategic business exchange. Likewise, it precedes that through the aforementioned international school DRAGONES DEL GOLFO of Colombia, NORTHLATITUDE had previously been selected by itself in South America and Argentina to teach the SURVIVAL CHALLENGE COLOMBIA international survival course where later, as Director I completed two (2) trainings as instructor in that country, as follows:

International Survival Instructor (Level I – Basic) and Search and Tracing, having completed an academic intensity of 159 theoretical-practical hours in classroom and in a jungle terrain of Colombia -international instructor registration EIDG005AE- (year 2019).

International Instructor of Survival Instructors, having completed an academic intensity of 200 theoretical-practical hours, also carried out in classroom and in jungle terrain of Colombia -international instructor registration EIDG009AE- (summer 2020).

International Instructor and Survival Instructor Trainer (2023).

In March 2019, he had been an instructor of the international course mentioned in the first paragraph, which was organized by the DRAGONES DEL GOLFO school and for which I had been chosen in South America and Argentina by that school as Director of NORTHLATITUDE. , Survival Instructor and Technical Advisor of the DISCOVERY CHANNEL international network in four (4) opportunities in the years 2015, 2017 and 2018 (chosen by Discovery of Mexico, England and Argentina) and as Military (R) of the Argentine Air Force, course that I finally taught in the Tatacoa Desert, Colombia, on March 1, 2 and 3.

Also, at the end of that international event, the next day I was kindly invited to be one of the speakers at the University of CORHUILA in Neiva, to talk about issues related to survival techniques that belongs to the PENTAGON of SURVIVAL. In this way, you can notice the validity and international recognition of the courses we teach at NORTHLATITUDE in regards to Survival for Extreme Environments, Orientation, Land Navigation and GPS with Cartography and the Multiadventure (which includes the joint activities comprised by the Skydiving + Survival + Orienteering and First Aid), for extreme zones like forests, jungles, islands, mountains, deserts, cold areas, etc.

Finally, my special thanks to the academic authorities of the DRAGONES DEL GOLFO international school, to the Director and Rector, Juan Pablo Campo Gomez and to the Academic Director, Cindy Carolina Urueta Tuiran, for having given me their complete confidence in a professional field for which both, DRAGONES DEL GOLFO and NORTHLATITUDE, have  a joint commitment  to continue teaching jointly in the national and international order.

Payments can be made as follows:

Cash (sign in the previous talk and the rest at the beginning of the theoretical/practical class)

Bank transfer by CBU, Mercado Pago, Western Union, Paypal or others.

At the end of fully paying the course, the student will receive a type «C» invoice.

You can consult other forms of payment as we also provide payment facilities.

The theoretical classes are taught in Perú 858, San Telmo (C.A.B.A) Autonomous City of Buenos Aires, Argentina, as we previously taught in classrooms in Palermo and Núñez.

Likewise, we offer the opportunity to instruct them in other places in Argentina or countries, and currently we already teach nineteen (19) courses in various provinces of Argentina, including two courses in Patagonia and other training and training courses taught and provided in the United States. , Mexico, Holland (Netherlands), Colombia and Ecuador.

We have the experience to dictate them in the national and international spheres, being that for the dictation of the same we have the ideal human resources and the necessary logistical support to previously manage a course that allows us to move to where they need to meet their requirements and expectations.

For those individuals, organizations, institutions, companies, international consultants, multinationals or others who need to hire our professional services in Argentina or abroad, it is required that once the procedures to teach a course have been made, we need to be with a minimum of three ( 3) days before in the place or near where a training will be given, since this will allow us to gather information and carry out a field survey before the start of an event.
