My first visit to Borneo and Camp Leakey was with a group of 11 other people from around the world, with most of us originating from Australia and the United States. The adventure started on the flight from Jakarta to Borneo over the Java Sea. Our accommodations at Camp Leakey were spartan (that is a generous statement). We didn’t complain, especially when we saw where Biruté Galdikas, and her former spouse Rod Brindamour, slept when they first established Camp Leakey in 1971. Next month, we will meet some of the people that worked at Camp Leakey in 1991.
