After each day, I like to ask myself what I have learned. What knowledge have I gained from the day’s events?

Today we learned that plantain chips are dangerously addicting (and delicious), that you should expect land slides while in the Amazon, and that hummingbirds are truly incredible creatures.

Also, while in the Amazon, dragon fruit will become your best friend, and you’ll slowly find yourself in love with cloud forests and their unique ecosystems!

Sometimes the roads into the Amazon need to be cleared.
