Jungles in Paris is a purpose-driven multimedia project based in New York City. We use non-fiction films, photography and more to create transporting encounters both online and offline. The aim is to get modern audiences to slow down and observe, learn about, and connect with the planet: to foster a true interconnectivity between people and place.
Prioritizing the local, the authentic, the sustainable and the timeless, we tell real stories that implicitly question the modern mode of living, and its relationship to nature in particular. The Guardian has called Jungles in Paris “one of the best independent travel magazines, while Fast Company refers to it as “a reminder that the world is still full of surprises.”

Great video! I met Elton while visiting Grand Manan several years ago... we've been friends ever since

Do you have contact information for Elton? I am planning a trip to Grand Manan next week, and I would love to meet him!

That guy lives down the road from me. You genius you. I'm definitely showing Rod and mom that tire trick. We still do it by hand, one on each side. Here I thought you had to make some kind of wooden machine, shaped like a catapult or something.
