What can I say about doing field work in BRAZIL (my home country)? Only the best things! AMAZING biodiversity and people to collaborate. I have been to so many expeditions, small and large, and they were all very enriching experiences.
I have here a few selected trips, and at the very end a few random images. Enjoy the view!
Serra da Mantiqueira 2017 - Cora and Usnea Expedition
States: Minas Gerais, São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro
Team: Alice Gerlach, Manuela Dal Forno, Philippe Clerc and Rodrigo Penati
Think of place you would like to go right now... among the so many places I have been, Pedra Bonita in Minas Gerais must be one of the most incredible sites I have ever been. So that would be my TOP CHOICE. The FOG is just out of this world in the pictures... and the LICHENS... to dream about!
