Pseudo Ecotourism

I had left my marriage at thirty-five, and I was determined to become

famous to cope with the rejection I was experiencing in my personal

life. Then I met my childhood friend Vedavyasa, who was seeking his

own fame and glory as a way to deal with his perceived shortcomings

in both his personal and professional lives. As a result, we started

pursuing wildlife photography and ecotourism as hobbies. Our

sole goal was to capture images of the subcontinent's Bengal Tigers

in their natural habitat. However, via some terrible events, the

immense landscapes of this great beast across the four nations that

make up its habitat taught us some life-changing truths. Eventually,

I had a mentor who gifted me with a philosophy for lifetime, "to

get a better perspective, you have to lie down!". This isn't simply a

wildlife enthusiast's ideology; it's the idea that led me to associate

deep ecology and coin the phrase of "Pseudo Ecotourism."
