I am going to the Amazon...

At the beginning of August I will be taking a 2.5 week trip tp the Peruvian Amazon to study slash and burn agriculture among a local tribe. I stumbled upon this opportunity through a family friend who is a professor at Emory University, and who runs the Peruvian Amazon Conservation Fund.

I am so excited and a little nervous. From what I hear I will be living with the people, like the people. Future trips will stem from this initial visit, as she (the program creator) wants me to eventually work with the tribes in the region to develop conservation plans of their own. All danger comes from the water: Conchiru catfish (swims up the urethra), crocs, and pirahnas. :lol:
 
Sounds amazing!
