The Plan

I should possibly inform of just what the trip entails.

Essentially I have volunteered to save the the South American rain forest single handedly, it's no mean feat but I've heard that there are some pretty bad wrongdoings going on around them parts and feel that it is my duty to do what I can to help those poor innocent and not to mention helpless lightning toothed viper slugs.

Ok maybe not. I have actually signed up for this little beauty:
http://www.workingabroad.com/page/140/cloud-forest-ecuador.htm

Whilst it will inevitably be an amazing experience it will also hopefully serve as an excellent foundation for a dissertation that needs to be carried out next academic year. As a result I am unsure of what this blog will become, either a very detailed and precise account of cloudforest biodiversity, or a worthless, meandering jumble of words that attempt to unsuccessfully portray a potentially very exciting project.... Probably the latter. Previously I was able to use pictures to make up for any poor descriptive/vocabulary problems on my part but that could prove challenging this time round as I do not have a laptop.

Needless to say I will endeavour to stick pictures up for your (and my) benefit. Failing that I will try and post regularly but being stuck in a remote part of Ecuadorian jungle could have it's setbacks.

Next stop Quito, Ecuador... Ding Ding!!! (That's a bit onomatopoeia there by the way........... it's for a bus...... even though we are going by plane......Right that's enough blogging for one day good grief is that the time, I have a plane to catch)

Cheerio
