Since 1965, Faustino Barrientos has lived alone on the shores of lake O'Higgins in a house built from the remains of a shipwrecked fishing vessel. He's a pastoralist, living mostly off the land and his livestock, with few modern amenities. His nearest neighbors are in Villa O'Higgins, a small community of several hundred people, 25 miles away, accessible only by a two-day horseback ride through rugged mountain animal paths. Every few years, Faustino makes this ride to sell his cattle in town.
Currently 81 years old, Faustino is reaching the end of his life, and his self-imposed isolation is being encroached upon by the forces of government, economy, and tourism. In December 2011, VICE went to document his lifestyle and speak with him about the changing face of Patagonia and the gaucho lifestyle.

for anyone wondering, Faustino is still alive! last report of him was August 19th, 2020. he looks healthy in the photos, accompanied by his two dogs :) to those who wonder where did these photos came from - a few police officers went to his home to bring him clothes and chop some wood for him and they (police) posted pictures of him, in their official twitter account.

Reminds me of my late grandpa. Most people called him a hermit. He lived in a small cabin about 50 miles from the closest town. No vehicle, no income. He shot his food & mined gold to get money. Eventually died in his late 80s because he fell off a cliff and laid there and couldn't get help. That's the chances you take, living in the mountains!

@geniemeadows5122 10 жыл бұрын

the only trouble is he ended up murdering someone. Hope he repents of sin while there is time for him and commits to Jesus so he can avoid hell. But he is resourceful and a decent builder which is good. You would have to be a hard person too to slaughter animals. Unless you just lived off vegetables. But I think a lot of people see that as a romantic kind of life with the boat coming in every 10 days or so and total peace and quiet. A bit like living on a desert island. I am not sure how he makes his money? but he would have to eat his tinned food fairly fast too or the cans would go rusty. But I must say animals make for way more lovely company than people. So yeah it is more appealing in many ways to live like that. But I think its better if say 2 or 3 live that way in case you got sick or disabled.

@geniemeadows5122 10 жыл бұрын

and whoa 81 and he can get on a horse that's pretty amazing. It's nice he isn't cruel in that he doesn't keep his dogs tied up thank goodness. So glad some other guy is close by though because if Faustino dies his animals would go hungry. The seasons for him are the same for me (September is Spring).

I enjoyed this story. While in watching this, one does wonder about the Faustino of yesteryear, you can't help but feel endeared to this ol' fellow. Initially you get the impression of a cantankerous old hermit living like some kind of troll in the wilds of Patagonia. What I see was a kind old man with an easy smile. He really seems to enjoy Lancaster living on his land, which again, defies the Faustino his family described. By the way, I completely believe that his nephew was stealing from him! If Faustino put some lead into his arse, then good enough for him! Long Live Faustino!

This series really proves that every story has 2 sides. His uncle specifically moved far away to avoid having contact with anyone.
