Juan-Enrique Barriga and his wife, Isabel, are great friends of Elizabeth and will be joining us for part of the expedition. They have a big, beautiful house in the countryside south of Santiago, with one of the best private insect collections in South America and lots of guest rooms for our expedition team to stay the night (lucky us!). Juan-Enrique is a very skilled beetle collector and has been of tremendous help to us on this and other expeditions. |
