Yossi Ghinsberg
Adventurer and Inspirational Speaker
In the midst of the uncharted Amazon, after losing his three companions, Yossi was tested to the extreme, alone and bare to the bone, for three harrowing weeks of sheer survival against all odds. He lived to tell the amazing story as well as how the ordeal profoundly affected his understanding of himself and his life purpose.
“Yossi’s story is an inspiration and demonstrates clearly the strength of the human mind and what it is capable of achieving”
Ten years after his Amazon survival, Yossi returned to the Amazon and made it his home. Working with indigenous forest dwellers for three years they built Cha-la-lan, a model eco-tourism village that inspired the entire Amazon basin and the world. Yossi now travels the planet sharing his universal message of strength, hope and inspiration. Author of the international best-seller ‘Heart of the Amazon’, Yossi’s message is bound to touch your heart. [/expand]
