One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Swim in La Laguna Azul, in Tarapoto, Perú. Amazing! I was surrounded by mountains all covered with vegetation, and I could hear the noises of the animals.. It was fantastic!
Staying in a lodge in the middle of the jungle, in Iquitos, Perú. I participated in a lot of excursions, ate delicious traditional food, fished pirañas, swam in the river, with lizards! ok, they were baby lizards, but still.. and I saw the pink dolphin, an endangered specie. I absolutely loved riding in the peke-peke with the locals..
