Nice pictures PureSurvival, I have a coworker from Guyana, he will get a kick out of the pictures. The one thing I love about jungles like that are there are a lot of resources available in the jungle. It seams most of the places you go anywhere in the world it's either palm trees, bamboo or pine trees in the jungle. Each will give you life as they say just knowing how to use them. I know after the first week you start thinking how much longer do I have left sometimes but if you keep busy and explore it can help take your mind off of things. I'll have to try Parana, they say you can swim with them as long as you don't have any exposed cuts, etc.. I would get a little worried crossing streams knowing them and the pythons are in there in those jungles.
