“I have an active lifestyle. When I want to take a break from my 9 to 5 routine, I go outside to play. I keep myself in relatively good shape and often select my vacations to engage in outdoor activities like hiking, sailing, kayaking, where I can at the same time discover new places, challenge my body and have a great time.”

“I am a modern-day explorer. When I put on my Indiana Jones’ hat, nothing can stop me. I like to explore the unknown, go places few have gone, see the unseen, I don't care if I don't know where or when I am going to eat or sleep. I am a team player and I can adapt to and endure almost anything.”
TREKKING IN THE JUNGLE
Canaima, its lagoon of pink sand beaches, its seven waterfalls, its
palm trees... was discovered (!) by Charlie Vaughan and Rudy Truffino
in the fifties; it is a tourist destination since then, accessible only
