They say about me 😊:

Hi Lora,

As we are about to leave Bologna, all four of us would like to thank you for making our stay in this beautiful region so memorable.
Every place you introduced us to was thoughtfully chosen and brought to life through your deep knowledge, enthusiasm, and genuine love for the work you do. You gave us much more than just a tour—you helped us truly experience and appreciate this wonderful part of Italy.
I am sure the memories from this trip will stay with us for a very long time.
We wish you all the very best and sincerely hope that our paths will cross again and that we will have the opportunity to enjoy more trips guided by you.
Warmest regards from all four of us!
Yan Barbalat

‼️Let’s keep getting LOUD >> All these landscapes are threatened by the current administration. We took a road trip to many threatened lands to bring awareness and so others could go see them. Please help raise awareness & visit if you can! 👉SHARE: The more people that can see & experience these places, the better chance we have at saving them. So GET LOUD! 📍Bonanza Springs - this amazing natural spring is the largest in the Mojave Desert. It’s a sacred place for many tribes and provides critical drinking water to the desert wildlife. It’s currently being drained by Cadiz, a foreign backed corporation that intends to sell it for profit and has gone to great lengths to deceive locals. 📍Ironwood National Monument - what a place! Saguaro as far as you can see! Great hikes, epic sunsets. Now threatened by a copper mine and Trump admin shrinkage. 📍Joshua Tree National Park - the beloved Joshua Tree is not migrating fast enough and may go extinct within our lifetime. Extraction is threatening edges of the park. 📍Chuckwalla National Monument - think ladder/rope hikes, petroglyphs, stunning scenery, lizards and solitude. Our newest NM is now being threatened with loss of status by the current admin. 📍Quitobaquito Springs, nestled on the U.S./Mexico border, is a highly sacred spring. Two endangered species (the mud turtle & pupfish) only live here. Quitobaquito is deeply threatened by the Trump team because they want to build a 2nd wall next to the wall that already exists here. The definition of insanity. When we were here 2 Spirit Runners from the Tohono O’odham Nation were running to the spring. Yesterday 2 women were arrested protesting the 2nd wall. Get out there now to show your support. Located in the Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument. 📍Big Bend National Park is currently being bulldozed for a border wall. To be clear, NO ONE wants or needs this wall. There are virtually no crossings here due to the rugged, mountainous terrain. Trump team has waived all enviro & cultural laws pushing this through. Stay tuned for updates and GET LOUD. Bulldozing 🎥: @ntlnwmn FOLLOW: @beersandbeans for public land updates

A view of the double wall that is rapidly approaching Grandmother tree. Grandmother needs your help! Can you come to grandmother camp? DM us! #noborderwall #noalmuro #protectwildlifecorridors

🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

BREAKING: bulldozers are moving in on the last 200-year old cottonwood tree, currently occupied by protestors in the path of the border wall. On Monday, DHS destroyed 3 of 4 of these ancient trees, each one of them older than the border itself. DHS said they would avoid nesting season for birds, but they're now plowing forward in violation of that promise. An endangered yellow billed cuckoo was documented here this week. DHS waived dozens of laws to speed this construction, including the Migratory Bird Treaty Act that would normally prevent such destruction. We were sent this video this morning.
