Those who travel to the Andes will sooner or later find themselves above an altitude of 2000 meters (6,562 feet). At this height, the risk of suffering from altitude sickness increases. Symptoms usually include headaches, followed by nausea, loss of appetite, weakness, dizziness, and breathlessness.
In the seclusion of the Amazon jungle, we work together with an indigenous community, which has preserved their traditional way of life and maintain their traditions until today. At the same time, people are very eager to learn and share, so they decided to receive volunteers from other parts of the world.
The Covid pandemic seems to be slowly coming to an end, travel is possible again as normal in many places and the sea turtle nesting season will soon begin. The season for raising wild animals has also started, and with it, unfortunately, the trade with exotic young animals.

Farm animals also need our help. We flirted with this wonderful project for a long time and then the pandemic got in our way. But finally the time has come. Our volunteers can now also help at a farm sanctuary in Chile.
