14.02.2020 Weekend in the Rainforest

This post doesn't need many words I think because the pictures give a better impression. This weekend 7 of the volunteers here took a trip to Andasibe rainforest, about a 4 hours drive away from where we work. We are staying in bungalows at the edge of the wild. Noises here include many cicadas, frogs and most new the sound of lemurs! These animals have fascinating cries, it sounds so surreal. During the time here we took some hikes through the rainforest and relaxed with some game playing in the evening. All in all a nice weekend away!
