What an incredible adventure
August 06, 2021by: Thomas Fuhrmann - GermanyProgram: Environmental Photographers and Movie ProducersOii, 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



Nature at its best!
June 29, 2021by: Thomas Fuhrmann - AntarcticaProgram: Environmental Photographers and Movie ProducersHiya, 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!
February 06, 2019by: Priscila Victoria - ArgentinaProgram: Environmental Photographers and Movie ProducersVolunteering 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
