Ucaima, Jungle Rudy y Gaby
Rudy came to Venezuela as a Dutch veterinarian. He discovered the region of Canaima in the early 1950'ies and remained in this paradise for the rest of his days. He supported many of the expeditions to this part of the world - up and around the Tepuys. He died in 1994.
Gaby, one of his three daugthers - find her in the family photo!-
was born in Canaima, and had three children, fluent in Pemon - the local indigenous language. They are training to pilot planes and helicopters, to continue the family tradition of exploration (www.junglerudy.com).
Just to say that this place is magnificent, and wakes dreams of a different life up.
