In the Jungle, the mighty Jungle...

Hi Hi Hi

Ok, scratch the title of that last post... I now have 2 more ¨New Favortie Places¨. The last 2 weeks have been totally amazing.

First, hiking throught the Andes and camping was a blast. I was hard work but totally worth it. We ending the trip by hiking to Machu Picchu, which for the record, it super cool. Overall, I think I was there for around 14 hours, hiking and looking around. There is so much to see!

Now I am in the Jungle, reaching 2 weeks on Friday doing jungle conservation. Basically just planting and measuring trees. In the afternoon we nap, read, play cards, chat. All the food is vegetarian, there is no electricity, no hot water... no walls... and it is really great!!!! We have 2 pet monkeys and a parott but I have not seen much other wild life. Thousands of butterflies, one snake, a jaguar kill... yep, that covers it. The closest town with internet/phone access is a 2 hour walk away... and my computer time is up (please excuse the grammer/spelling errors!).

Love to all!,

  1. Carson, I am enjoying your adventures so much and the pics are great! Can't believe I will see you in Carmel in about three weeks! Thinking of you and wish I could see the butterflies.
