Searching for new experiences Yazz worked in Cabo Verde and Galapagos archipelagos with sea turtles, learning about different ecosystems and ways of living.

Frederico Pessanha
Portuguese, born on 1988 in "sunny Algarve", from early ages he understood the important role of nature. He managed to study at different Universities around Europe to grasp a more profound knowledge about it!
His long trips to Africa made him developed inside with simple things as free smiles from strangers or when people with so less possessions can share much.
The Azores appeared on the map as an opportunity for an Endemic lifestyle. He is working as marine & land tour guide since 2013.

Increasingly, not only species but also nature, humans, culture and traditions are becoming global and less exceptional. Because of those facts, our ethic should embodies a set of principles to preserve our local "environments". Because of those facts, our ethic should embodies a set of principles to preserve our local "environments". Therefore, let´s do every single fact of our life ENDEMIC!
