And then we hiked through the jungle for 7 hours

The village is nestled into a little mountain range, which we proceeded to climb all over. It came as a bit of a surprise - we were expecting a nice relaxing nature walk, but what we got was a grueling full day of mountain climbing, lead by a 9 year old boy. I guess he knows the jungle as well as anyone... Some elders came with us, but trailed along in the back, occasionally stopping us to point out different plants and roots that can be used for food/medicine/burning/house-building/etc.
