What an incredible adventure

Oii, I´m not a man of great words, but able to capture my surroundings with my camera. Observe the world with an open mind and some patience. Spending 3 months in the beautiful and stunning Atlantic Forest at IPBio Reserva Betary as a volunteer was like this: check my YouTube playlist and my travel website Cheers Thomas

Hiya, I´m not a man of great words, but able to capture my surroundings with my camera. That´s why I don´t have to much to say, but more to show: Check out my personal travel related website for the images I took while spending 3 months in the beautiful and stunning Atlantic Forest at IPBio Reserva Betary as a volunteer and check my YouTube playlist „IPBio“ to see what it is like to volunteer at IPBio and what you can expect to see, if you observe the world with an open mind, a bit of luck and some patience. Cheers Thomas

The best way to spend a vacation!

Volunteering at Betary Reserve was an incredible experience. My husband who works in post production and I, went to the Reserve to make a video of the release center. I’m a doctor at a hospital located in Bs As, and I wanted to do something for the environment and this was just what I was expecting. I’m very happy and thanks to this experience I want to do more volunteer work. The staff is amazing and the reserve is beautiful
