Our Story
Benito Woodward
Founder & CEO
When I moved to New York in 2018 from Chile I left all my wild friends back home. Having a friend that would always say yes to an adventure or inspire me to push my limits was hard to come by at the beginning. I kept doing the things I loved by myself like surfing, hiking, and climbing, and in that process discovered more wild people. Like me, there were others out there looking to connect with nature, have fun adventures, and explore the outdoors.
​
That's how I came up with the idea for Wild Friends. No matter where you are in the world, there will always be someone ready to say yes, ready to pack up their gear and head out into the ocean, mountains, rivers, forests, or wherever their passions lead them to.
​
I hope that you can use this platform to start new friendships, dream big adventures, and get out and enjoy nature!
