Orangutan Tour, Kalimantan, Indonesia
Hi Gilang
Most wonderful orangutan tour
The crew that you gave us are such wonderful human beings, thank you
so very much. They cared for us incredibly well and we could have
stayed forever. I thank you and your team
for your care. Was the most wonderful week of our lives and we would
like to return in July 2012...I was fortunate enough to meet with
Professor Galdikas who has asked me to assist with some
Orangutan projects. Hopefully I will be able to do just that!
In touch soon and so much gratitude.
