The Philippine Jungle Expedition. 04-05-2011 - 25-05-2011
We wish to point out that this is a real adventure and it is extremely physically and mentally demanding. Are you not quite ready, we have courses for you.
Because of the expedition's nature, nothing is 100%. We are moving into one of the most typhoon-affected countries. We will thus do everything we can to keep the schedule.
Although we do not believe that the expedition is dangerous, there are risks in staying so far from civilization. If an accident occur, we will of course do everything we can to get you out of the jungle, but you must be aware that it is far to the hospital.
The Expedition leader and the medic are fluent in both english and swedish.
We will have meetings in Sweden for you who will attend the expedition, where we will show pictures and we talk about what makes sense to pack and what to buy in your country, which they don't have in the Philippines.
