Wow, it's been almost 3 months here in the middle of the jungle, time has just fly by...Now I'm sort of wrapping up everything, having good bye dinners, parties, and so on...
In my last field adventure we took a jeep to go as deep as we could into the jungle using the old pipeline road. We drove almost 10 km until we ran across a tree fall that blocked the road completely. So we left the car there and hiked for about 1 hour looking for butterfly aggregations. We had no luck, no aggregations, although the hike was amazing as usual.
It is really weird how I feel right now. I feel a little bit nostalgic and almost don't want to leave this amazing place but at the same time I feel that for now it's enough and it's time to go back to the "civilization". I've met wonderful people and have had amazing experiences here, they all gained a place in my heart. Although I will leave with excitement because after discovering this place and obtained decent research results I have decided to come back next summer!!!
This blog is about my adventures while doing research. Yeah this is what I do, this is what I love, and hopefully will continue to this until I die...
