Reconnaissance

I believe that a road can never be too long.

I believe that no depth is too deep to be plunged.

I believe that no river is too fast to be forded.

I believe that no jungle is too thick to be walked.

Getting the balance right

Nothing has changed much in this quiet town.
Nature is still the dominant force here.
The aboriginies have got the balance between respecting and using nature right.
The locals seem to have a good balance between modernity and culture.
We are here to ensure that this year's programme has a nice balance between activities that push one's resilience to its limit and making time here as meaningful as it should be.

Sights and Sounds

welcome to the jungle

This is not your park down the road. This is not an empty bit of land or a prawn farm turned into a tourist distraction. This is the jungle.
