RE: Witnessing a volcano eruption 1km away

in #photofeed7 years ago

That is truly an incredible photo! If you want a career that deals with volcanos you should check this company's video out:

Nanometrics sends out guys to set up seismic instruments near different volcanos around the world and I almost got a job with them, damn....

You should also check Tajumulco, the tallest peak in Guatemala and incidentally an extinct volcano. The hike to the summit is pretty tough, but the view is surreal!

Thanks mate! Sound like an awesome company to work for! What kind of job did you almost get with them? Unfortunately finishing my adventure here in Guate, so no more volcanoes for me, but some other cool stuff!

It would have been a field engineer position, and it would have required to work in Canada's remote northern locations to set up various instruments. They tried to emphasize how much you needed to be adventurous and physically fit for the position and I told them about my Tajumulco hike but alas, it didnt work out in my favour.
