With five of us wedged into a wobbly, four-seater plane, this is a selection of shots from our sweaty one-hour flight from Manaus, in the Brazilian Amazon, to Novo Aripuana -even deeper in the Amazon- and back. Many thanks to Daniel, the pilot, for permitting the use of electronic devices. Aerial view of the Amazon Rainforest, near Manaus, the capital of the Brazilian state of Amazonas.

Cette fête rassemblait des groupes de passionné(e)s d'histoire qui reconstituent les activités (souvent militaires) à tel ou tel moment de l'histoire; il y a ceux qui se voient en grognards de l'Empire et celles qui rêvent des Amazones ou des femmes en armes de Sparte.
Ici, un télescopage temporel fait s'affronter deux guerrières antiques et un chevalier du temps des Croisades.

Hoek van Holland 4-8-2019 , na bijna drie weken bij Huisman in de Wiltonhaven in Schiedam gelegen te hebben voor onderhoud vertrok zondagavond de AMAZON naar de Noordzee.
This is an exciting and unforgettable tour, full of adventure to this ethnic group that still preserve their ancient traditions, located in Yasunà National Park which has the greatest biodiversity that only exist in Ecuador.
With this tour you will have the opportunity to observe Amazon wildlife and flora and at the same time you will share the customs and traditions of an authentic Huaorani tribe in their own lifestyle with amazing landscape.
This sustainable project creates a very unique experience, where visitors will learn about the Huaorani cultures and their closed relationship with the rainforest, and in order to contribute with the preservation of this reserve our native guide will give you a conservationist interpretation of the environment and actual situation of the primary Ecuadorian Amazon Rainforest.
Our outstanding Camping has capacity for 10 people with facilities and securities that will help you to enjoy the unique experience to be inside of a Primary Rainforest.

This young Shuar man, who lives by himself in this house on a hilltop overlooking a scenic vista of the Amazon Basin, honored us by inviting us in for some music. Living with few material possessions, he sleeps with a spear by his bed and says that he is so comfortable in his surroundings that if an animal enters his home at night, he can slip into the jungle, never to be found. His uncle, who lives in a tiny village below, checks in on him from time to time.
He left home as a youth to learn about the other cultures in the region, and told us he speaks four languages (the native tongues of the indigenous people of his area, as well as Spanish). Sadly, many of the indigenous cultures of the Amazon rain forests are being eradicated -- along with the traditions, medicines, and ways of life that have sustained them for over 3000 years -- by oil companies, commercial farming, and other large corporations who seek to exploit the plentiful natural resources of the area for financial gain.
While there is no way of knowing the impact on future generations of what we have already done, it is not too late to save what is left of our natural wonders. There is still hope if we are able to learn from our mistakes....
