Ten-year-old Massachussetts fifth grader Jessica Laman has made five trips to an orangutan research site called Cabang Panti at Gunung Palung in Borneo. Things like leeches in her boots and snakes on her computer seem normal to her. That's what happens when your Mom is an orangutan researcher and your Dad is National Geographic photographer Tim Laman.
Jessica will be writing about her experiences and her unique family life on National Geographic's Proof blog. Great thing to share if you have a young daughter at home. And still pretty interesting even if you don't.
