My protagonist has been crazy about monkeys since his childhood. Later in life he is traveling to the jungle and experienced adventures. He explored the jungle of Bolivia and worked in a monkey sanctuary. The beauty of nature is overwhelming. But being away from home and with wild animals leads to problems too.
The story is based on stories my friend, who is a monkey researcher, told me. I drew the pictures in Latin America, Panama and Costa Rica. Technique: pencil on paper.
