ON EARTH DAY "Camp Yutaje" My time in the Amazon was an extraordinary experience, where the most basic was elevated to the immense before the majesty of nature. From the most unlikely, life seemed incredible: insects and animals of all kinds made us live together in a magical and unique, wild environment and, at the same time, reminded us of our fragility in the face of so much wonder. I will never forget the imposing jungle, a spectacle that marvels and, simultaneously, instills terrible fear. The air you breathe is pure, and the night unfolds a canvas of stars, constellations, planets and even satellites. The Yutajé waterfall, the second highest in Venezuela, is a beauty, incredible that we have such a treasure in our country! Without a doubt, my being experienced a before and after after this visit to the Amazon.

Extraordinary, yes, it was in 1986, the year of Hailey's Comet, we went there, to see the comet pass by. We dined on grilled game animals: limpet, deer. Unique and extraordinary experience. As my dad always said, "Disney? No, first we have to get to know all of Venezuela, which is our country, then we go to others.
