As a result of our exploration in the Caribbean island of Puerto Rico since around two years ago, we have spread the word about our ecotourism and other eco-oriented experiences so far. It is time to test your knowledge about some discoveries we shared through publication of ecotreasures ® stories under the eco section. You may dare yourself to answer the questions listed below without reading the articles again, or feel free to refresh your memory.
