Hello steemits! Today I come to tell you about a trip I took to a wasteland of Tachira, which is the state where I live, here in Venezuela. The páramo is called "Paramo el Zumbador", as all the places in this site exist a type of biological diversity, in flora and fauna, this diversity over the years has been affected, not only in this place of course, but in all the planet, and all thanks to the hand of man.

However there are wonderful people in this world, who are responsible for protecting many species, preserve them and try to make the planet a better place, I present to Mr Chucho, this man has all his life cultivating and protecting the species that They are in this wasteland, dedicated their lives to contribute their bit to the environment! In his house, which is also a nursery, you can see all the plants he grows, also taught us about what was the species of pine that represents the state Tachira: Which is the pine tree: it is a national pine, called more frequently "Pino Laso" also Pinabete and Pino Real, due to the magnitude of its size, it is really a beautiful tree because of its august appearance and dense foliage.

What I liked the most about this outing was seeing the large number of flowers that grow and the road and roads we crossed to get there, and of course the teachings of Mr. Chucho, a wonderful person, who with his age is still able to do more for the planet than many young people, I think we should take all these positive things from the elderly, as they are teachings, and put them into practice, to make this world better and have a more sustainable planet, without more to say Here are some photos of the trip:
