Hello friends
My sister and I are feeling pulled to South america. So far the internet does not offer much info. We would love to speak with people living or traveling there (especially people reforesting!) We have so many questions.
1. The snake situation. It is not so much fear but respect of these beautiful creatures. I personally would not enjoy putting myself in a situation where I need to kill a creature to survive. Do people catch venomous snakes to milk them for anti venom? Are there ways to reduce the snake population on your land using owls or other birds of prey, dogs, bad ass geese or cats, non venomous snakes or anything else?
Which country has the least amount of venomous snakes? How many snakes per hectare do you think?
2. Reforesting projects. Do you know of any reforesting projects that would welcome two people for a more long term working situation? When I look at wwoof sites a lot of them say like 2-4 weeks. If we burn fossil fuels to get down there we want to stay long term and transitioning into living there.
3. Government situation. Which country is least corrupt? I have heard great things about Uruguay. Are there any other countries in a similar situation as Uruguay?
.
4. GMOs - Which country has the most amount of organic farming? Hearing about Brazil and Argentina growing GMOs out the wazoo made me question the corruption level of their government.
5. Health Care- In the future I will be a caretaker for my little brother. He has some health issues with his digestive, heart, thyroid, and neurological. Which area offers the best care? Also vaccines? I would not wish to give him anymore vaccines.
6. Education- My brother is eight years old right now. Which area offers the best education for some one with a different rhythm? Preferably a school with a similar Waldorf/Montessori style of teaching. Or homeschooling groups?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Blessings
Katlin and Mandy
