Pb: Ao seu lado, estava Mariana, uma voluntária cheia de energia, determinada a ajudar a natureza. E Felipe, um caminhante experiente, mas um tanto cético sobre o projeto.
En: By his side was Mariana, a volunteer full of energy, determined to help nature, and Felipe, an experienced hiker, but somewhat skeptical about the project.
