Paulo Melchior

Paulo Melchior, one of our favorite nature guides in Santarém, is hospitalised at the Municipality Hospital. We all wish him a speedy recovery because he is missed by fellow guides, and especially by our international tourists. My picture of him was taken at Bosque Santa Lúcia last year.
