Today I will translate this article, so you can read it in Portuguese, then in English, then in Portuguese or use the translation purely as a reference. Enjoy!
“Sue and Patrick Cunningham are realizing an incredible adventure throught the heart of Brazil. The two English people began, on the 2nd of April, to navegate a small boat the entire length of the river Xingu.
“They calculate that the trip ought to take between four and five months, and hope to observe how the indigenous populations of the region are living and to also evaluate the impact of humans and of global warming in one of the biggest natural reserves in the world.
“Regularly, Sue and Patrick are going to communicate with BBC Brasil by satellite telephone to relate their adventures and answer some questions from internet users.”
