Em setembro de 2011 estive fotografando para CSF, um projeto de desenvolvimento de um plano de turismo em terras indígenas. Nos estados do Amazonas e Rondônia, das etninas Parintintin e Paiter-Suruí. Este ano, em julho voltei para essas aldeias com a equipe de profissionais para entregar o plano de negócios já elaborado e também para expor as fotografias que eu e o fotógrafo Marcos Amend fizemos. Todos nos receberam lindamente com uma festa tradicional indígena. Em breve vou postar mais imagens dessa viagem.
