Pablo Durana ’06 at Mount Bute in British Columbia works on a National Geographic documentary. Durana was featured on our first magazine cover in fall 2005 (see PDF), when a Burch Fellowship led him to bicycle across China. We caught up with Durana in fall 2013 for a 20-year retrospective story on the Burch Fellows. The freelance cinematographer (on Instagram, @Pablo_Durana) told us in that story he’s always had a love of “lore and storytelling.” Do you have a favorite story we’ve shared over the past 15 years? Email us with an update at college-news@unc.edu. (Photo courtesy of Pablo Durana)
