  Hi –
  
  The prize money is to be used for science communication. So I thought it would be quite cool to make some footage to show what it’s like on a day to day basis in the forest, and exactly what I’m doing when I go out getting information on different species in the forest. It can be quite hard work wading through the swamps particularly.
  
  It’s not just to film my hoidays on, honest.
