7:17 am
uncharted amazon. of course is no map of the region and we're trying to come our way and follow reversed and what initially was supposed to take then they stakes a few weeks in a rainy season which in retrospect was the worst in penny or. 2 weeks later after the floods i just was completely exhausted and i couldn't walk anymore because my feet would not carry me because they were just wrong there was no skin just flesh exposed and left weeks alone i felt the lure of this. my rescue was a miracle were kevin was his commitment to arrange
7:18 am
a search party was villagers fall far down the river they came into the boat well fico negotiate the challenges of the river now we're talking 120 miles of river into uncharted. but unbelievable coincidence as they start to turn the boat in the place where i collapsed the night before they found me. palo amely perhaps you know one both of them but have all of a feeling that i just got out about all kinds of wild things that while i got the i got the i. have also i don't think that somehow you don't piss off a lot like anybody. my life or a spare or been saved but my story and connection to this part of the world just began in fact.
7:19 am
i wrote a book about my experience and the book was translated to many languages and backpackers from all over the world started visiting didn't believe me and i was a. more you know if there's a lot of it as i do i'm going to get the high jump i just think oh yeah i'll say what i know they were very bad also so you. got that world look at you will. they yes look is the biggest thing that makes all these really come to south
7:20 am
america to the genders because it's crazy everybody wants to experience the life of the jungle and the. see and eat and smell and maybe have a little talk like in the. financial problems of any of your babies. over me i'll go to lisa for the 5th when i leave. but i will feel a photo of it at the head of state but a joke if you need a public boat i gather you will see both. of you all your life saver and i said i've opened up the whole business is all you want. you want to call him a little boy you'll see him but. like i said i have full that's all i mean that's what they do. i think. it's very different here at the book and the a.b.s.
7:21 am
7:22 am
rocks on and other visitors the entire village you know becoming a jungle. part of its growth is based on the book and the story and it's an industry on the song and dugout canoes go every day of the 3 to be very every guy knows the story and usually every guy makes himself part of the story saying that they were there themself and they saved me and then belushi and exaggerating and you know like in a very saucy american way enjoying the art of storytelling. we departure about $830.00 ok in $32.00 not a pop takes 3 hours to get to the movie national park everything ok but 1st language being our campsite transportation guy. every time. you get a guy that carry all your baggage it's not just. so it's hard to get on the
7:23 am
beaten track pretty much at this stage yeah i think so i mean you can if you want to in good time but it's also easy to stand the gringo parrotfish you can enjoy it and they say that using fun also. so. when i hear the word the gringo trail i think of a dusty unpaved road crisscrossing the entire planet with many details on the way but most of the same characters. it's the blue highway of the global village in some ways it's the word parallel to the one in which people who need to get something done moving and it's a way for people who want to get lost and who don't necessarily want to get anywhere but true for all the joy it's the journey and not the destination.
7:24 am
backpacker travel is predicated on the idea that you're doing something different than the mainstream tourist but a lot of their patterns are similar to what the mainstream tourists are doing. and would be snarky about that is just how people end up you know people end up seeking out certain manifestations of home and in luxury hotel it's going to be a nice trip pasta dinner on backpacker trails going to banana pancakes. so. there's always the same some wanting to keep certain things secret and private and for me and my friends and in fam how there is that other side of me that says well i believe the place is so great i should probably include it in the book but i know what i did going to change the moment i put it in the guide book it's going to change i mean it's going to get overrun it's a huge responsibility especially in places like bolivia where tourism can really make it or break you can come ways i feel that even more.
7:25 am
we want to say that by bus now different time is money on the. screen my boss is making different types. oh shine a light. under a cloud. oh yeah you know when i go on the. meter. for a little bit i think i. look a little bit out of our muslim way aboard don't seem to bother me over again which of but so on oh look at another her mind and let me tell you they're very seriously
7:26 am

7:27 am
of the name of ok i looked in the field by him which will enable until some time one month more and more choice. they killed that alone but again when all the bases saw. what happened saw a nice bit all of them or yeah i you must. but all of us. so moira simplemente. then don't believe that the make up on the left. to live a highly but i was in which of course imo no i. see no but i mean. it really boils down to educating all travelers whether that traveler is a wealthy individual on a luxury trip or whether they're just setting out for the 1st time as a college student with a backpack on remembering that proverbial cliche we are guests in another culture.
7:29 am
decor turns quickly to send a kid i was going to take up book it was it is just horrific you see. temporizing i read my youth that i mustn't super radio monocle says i'm not saying more honest than having the rounds there on the show that blows me markedly no one with anything. yet humor like you know what it's about is the next saturday night you know i started to these people commit some of for i'm not a secret to kids about 730 eastern. well your it's over said that if you don't say i will not just equipment that is in

7:31 am
me almost. i can see you go now like and you know the saddle pick out when it gets half it knows how to have the horse know as they see it but alas even you have a way yes kick out of a you can all play with these one out one hand if it and they wind up by the park without it basically not on the enough pedal that it will see that it is the mass of making the moment and you need to come in his point of view that most of you see and think on the package you think on the senate's point the ant. causes its eyes and it came more just by say his skin and i yells for lost wages pretty funny. but i must say i can't you have a way you can know since you know that's fun as much as 90 minutes and comedians who can put them in touch i was there your seats and i got some valid up a sense of manna that obvious is how you. give us all. response time and this time man is 10 times as sick on the other hand it's one as on the
7:32 am
young no $159.00 it's not have anonymous will seek only companion. who have the good news or commits to sue for call which a god or any of those that have to is to remain as yes i'm mostly interested what i can do is sort of to the students or to seems to be students you. benefit. why don't you tell us what that is but a tool or system which it does a body was instituted to these people rightly cost. what are the limits of acceptable change yes there is an economic opportunity here
7:33 am
ringback ringback plant it in such a way that the beauty of this area of the environment is a destroyed that there is an economic benefit that comes in but not at the cost of destroying culture or the land around this particular area. what is our environmental footprint what is our impact on the very cultures that we're visiting the very things that really were selling at the end of the day tourism is about selling nature and cultural heritage. i just want to get away from it all and i was hoping to find some place unspoiled.
7:34 am
i had heard about this island called chris mooney in southern thailand which is island in the middle of nowhere this is back in 1979. and i got on the boat and as movie came into view and we pulled up to the dock and there was a backpacker's on the boat mind you not that many probably about 12 or 15 people but on the dock there were about 6 tie guys there come stay at my bungalow comes they you know my place and needed this restaurant i'll take you to a good place to stay and i was so disappointed i was like no you know i don't i don't want this anymore so i went to the captain of the boat and i said we're do you go next. and he nodded his head like that and i looked up and i saw this island on the horizon and i said what's that he said co-pay again and i said i want to go to cope and again and he said to me no no no no no tourist go playing again nothing
7:35 am
for you but you don't understand i said to him i want nothing i'm looking for nothing and all the backpackers got off we sailed over to cope and then i got off the boat put on my backpack and i started walking. and i walked by thai fishermen and some small thai huts there were a couple of young girls and they looked up and they screamed when they saw me and they ran and i just kept walking and i musta walked i don't know for 5 or 6 hours until right around sunset i got to this point. and it was the most spectacular beach than i had ever seen i mean like just dramatically beautiful and i was stunned. and there was a thai fisherman sitting on this beach and he was cleaning the barnacles off of his little dug out. and suddenly he looked up and he looked at me and he looked really startled and he said in this perfect time warp 1960 singlish
7:36 am
whoa man like where did you come from dude his name was some boom and some boom and his wife choma had worked for the u.s. military during the vietnam war so they hadn't spoken english since then. and they had to little children who lived on this incredible beach this incredible beach called hot ridge and they opened their doors and i stayed with them for a month and it was paradise. not only was i me only traveling there but no travelers were going there period they weren't there yet. there had been a german couple quiet met in northern thailand months before and we talked about ron day filling in kosovo and i told them about this. this incredible beach you know unspoiled that nobody knew about and that you know i would take them there but
7:37 am
asked. what ever you do don't tell people about this place because what will happen news backpackers will end up going. at least backpackers i didn't have very much money and i was looking for some adventure and i was looking for something. i met a young man who was like much to spend 3 months in dream and it was these amazing
7:38 am
people there this little community it was a traveling scene. that's where the backpackers were i got a bundle at bobo's bungalows it was about 15 baht it's about $0.50 and very quickly realized there was this little community of a couple 100 people with the locks of doors on the bungalows and living very simply and very cheaply here with 100 or 150 people from all around the world you mean can't speak the same language and yet we all knew each other you know we were one and while you know i was in paradise and i knew it i knew we all knew it. you know that's my multiverse are coming myself buying trucks from. ali and selling dresses and cherry red meat watching the snow making a. make up and we are moving forward on down the mall here to give you our. thanks to god.
7:39 am
for a new day but yeah. the best parties was on the movie. and it was just i remember the 60 people just really made children join in and don't seem to summarize how much time the time comp started to emerge and i could feel as us in india and. all the forum on no more on what to moan about ever since threw us out of that city or for a month. put fire on the beach and f. everybody i vowed to play it and have time to elope with. mr kyle knowledge in this very cooperated in the beginning because they were glad we were there nobody else wanted to be there and they were making money.
7:40 am
in the early 1990 s. i opened a magazine and the back page was this photograph of hot rich beats the beach that i had been with dallas and thousands of people. just like unbelievable it was staggering. millennium. i think that was the biggest kick off of all i mean the price was absolutely brand packed demosthenes changed all sounds and people there that night . it moved from the roof to the back fence. and didn't save most from making the backpack and to. play.
7:41 am
7:42 am
a sheeple here will come to party but to move from one body and experience to culture. i go by all the buckets i mean that's the only thing that the bucket culture i think it's very important maybe to us here but so far the same so that one goes off great cool and big but also call me to get the i mean the straw.
7:43 am
6 in the case of hot rain you know there was no development plan tourism should have never been allowed to take place the way it did it was anarchy it was a free for all there was nothing to guide it who is asking important questions like what words all the plastic going to go where is the waste going to go where were people going to go to the bathroom it's all just going to end up on the beach it's all going to end up on the water 30 years ago people weren't asking these questions . and we didn't have the facilities just started to tighten mills and this is not.
7:44 am
how to put it half towards its highs not knowing. what was going to happen and half of it the pharmacy to come in. i say listen those are lessons but i think it's very hard like anything in a well to look ahead and say what you can see is a change it's easy to say on the so-called safe again not for me but again maybe at the time on on call on that nothing in hunting cannot. is today. the $986.00 equivalent of coping on exists somewhere in the philippines or in an illusion right now and as seen transforms and burns itself out here and comes back up in another place.
7:46 am
and time is trying to you know slowly you know slowly slowly tried to you know you know the law is not ready very fast and lost everything so that's why i made a careful with a culture so what are what we have is a unit to us and to every boy if we have a cause to so that we can share with the rest of the world this way if we keep really high and low in fact. we looked at models around the world and also we looked at next on the ball and thailand you know those last 2 resume we said no we don't want that. what's going to happen there's going to be the development of bars clubs prostitution centers massage parlors and everything is going to be geared to its tourism where people are going to lose their identity their culture. people that have been backpackers in the past when they were. 25 below 25 years of age now
7:47 am
make sure they've evolved and they've been there done that seen the world and they're looking for a different experience so they choose to come to the town. we don't really know because just because it's coming. to this or that we could only multimillionaire tryer to professor. and those of interested who can afford. it doesn't matter tons of this admitted it will not and will you continue to do that and they will not allow you to cut the force. in the mid seventy's when king was coronated as the youngest head of state people said how should you tell how can he crease your g.d.p. and he was a visionary he said no i want to increase my people's g.h. and people say what is g.d. but gross national happiness in terms of striking a balance between the material the emotional and spiritual wellbeing off its people
7:48 am
so we follow the genie tree which is a middle path and it's based on 4 main pillars one is sustainable development the 2nd point is the position and promotion of the environment. is a preservation of your culture without your culture you do see identity and last but not least is the establishment of good governance. decease straight stitch the 2nd 3 months so that you gyro the feet into form was measured data. used by a symbolic gesture to gauge the spring. well the 1st step to be different and. we didn't have to depend on to see so this way we can assume the culture of less troops.
7:49 am
we could be tripped and fell through the top we have to also respect our educators to pull the trigger we don't follow you if i know you won't be welcome you won't be any more welcome. to day's travel or just crisscrossing the world to greater body of an intense than ever before so that the map of a planet that looks like a jackson pollock canvas had previously looked like a great open space and i think more and more travel is not a the realizing that the 1st question they have to offer themselves is would these
7:50 am

me what i look. like was it was you it was that. your city that was. i had no clue about ecology or eco tourism or biodiversity or sustainable development i didn't know anything about anything i felt i'm there to say thank you and thank them for saving my life but i learned that i educated myself on all these issues i went to washington d.c. raised a 1000000 and a half dollars brought it back to the region and i wasn't an ngo i was just representing the people and i got the money so it was the bank. into american development bank financing
7:55 am
a village in the middle of the amazon this was unprecedented. that. was kind of must must if you notice i mean having the only tribe choosing ecology choosing sustainable development because there was the lure of the longer than the lure of the oil exploration and the gold exploration. but when they went resort they went to collage ecosystem level development the entire area turned to be a national park that might be the national park. when. they want more.
7:56 am
ice is going to be financed. beneath. i miss you know. they're not going to. move to mustn't they're not. the stories that i bring back now are less about trying to show i've been to places that haven't changed it's actually coming back with stories about what those places are today in all of their manifestations. it's over 30 years since i was at coping again and there are co-pay and dance and hot rins all over the world that have suffered the same plight. but you know what it's not too late maybe for some places it is but it's not too late for other places.
