What national park do you dream of visiting?

Yellowstone is my favorite national USA park for his history and culture,I am fascinated by the history of this land and the indigenous people who have lived there for millennia and I want to meet the local people. Exceptional wildlife; I look forward to observing species like bison and elk in their natural habitat. This is a unique opportunity to see these wild animals evolving freely. Spectacular landscapes and the biodiversity. Historical significance; First National Park in the world.

What has been your favorite adventure experience?

I did canoe 300 km Schefferville to Goerges River. 40 rapids and portage. It was very hard but the scenery of the land calmed all the pain. We saw animals, a caribou was observing us ans hide behind a tree. It was a very cute moment because we saw the body and he was sure we didnt see him. It was good to drink the cold water from the rivers. The land is huge and powerfull, its how i felt canoeing in it.

What would you do with $10,000?

Yellowstone travel budget ($10,000 for 10 days) 1.Transportation and accommodation ($2000) Essence Campsites A few nights in accommodation managed by the First Nations and local buisness 2.
