Thank you, Tamara Parraguez, for the thoughtful article published in Adventure Travel News about the recently held Adventure NEXT event in Costa Rica, carefully organized by the Adventure Travel Trade Association. Our founder and director, Vanessa Marino, shared her life experiences living in the Amazon and addressed the audience with her keynote titled “The Emotional Journey.” Her talk challenged attendees to look beyond the obvious and rethink the way we approach travel in both our lives and businesses.

🍃Guaraná: Nature’s Energy Booster🍃

Native to the Amazon, guaraná (Paullinia cupana) is renowned for its caffeine-rich seeds, used for centuries to boost energy and focus. Globally popular in energy drinks and powders, it is currently fruiting (November to January), with its bright red fruits revealing black seeds. We are now in the guaraná fruit season, and as part of our “jungle-to-table” experience, we are harvesting this remarkable plant to incorporate into the daily diet of our guests staying at the Refuge Lodge.

A Bit Of Our History

Amazon Emotions is committed on offering experiential and conservation-conscious itineraries to promote sustainable tourism, raise awareness and support for the community development sector. Whilst the Amazon Emotions office is located in 667 acres of virgin forest in Presidente Figueiredo, known on the Brazilian Amazon as the Land of Waterfalls, is home to the most beautiful waterfalls near Manaus and the birdwatching spot for viewing the Galo-da-Serra (Guianan cock-of-the-rock), it will be offering itineraries across Amazon region.

That dream started as a company named Tropical Tree Climbing, which first opened its doors in 2006, offering an insight into the world of a family for whom nature conservation is a way of life. Recognized as one of 7 offbeat adventures from around the world in National Geographic Travel, few years later, Vanessa Marino – the owner of Amazon Emotions – a passionate conservationist with over 23 years of combined experience in the conservation and tourism industries, with her 3 kids rebranded the company to Amazon Emotions, hence the current celebration of 14 years of sustainability, adventure, and passion for exploring. After this, she incorporated community-based tourism as a key component of her journeys to indigenous communities, managing both the impacts and the benefits of this tourism, strengthening their self-governance, economic alternatives, and traditional ways of life in the process.

Vanessa’s work have featured regularly in international television documentaries and magazines, as well as a public speaker who is passionately dedicated to wildlife conservation, community-based tourism and transformational travel, dealing with the important issue of how travel has the power to protect nature, benefit communities and preserve cultural heritage—principles she view not only as her goal, but our responsibility.
