Expedition Peru

Peru 2025

back to the worldmap overview

Ahead through research

Serious product development needs to be based on solid research. That is why we travel the world and explore habitats first-hand during our expeditions.

Our main objectives:

  • How do discus fish live in the Amazon, and which other fish do they live alongside?
  • Why are poison dart frogs so common in certain places?
  • What do the underwater habitats in Lake Titicaca look like?

Research for the aquaristics and terraristics hobby

It’s hard to imagine such diverse destinations within one single expedition! The Amazonian lowland rainforest near Iquitos on the Amazon, Tarapoto, a mecca for poison-dart frog enthusiasts and cold-water rivers flowing from the Andes, and the Urubamba River, right next to the Inca city of Machu Picchu, and finally Lake Titicaca. What more could you want when in Peru?

    To the discus fish near Iquitos on the Amazon

    Iquitos is the largest city in the world without road access – reachable only by plane or boat and situated directly at the fork between the Rio Nanay and the Amazon.

    First sighting of long-whiskered catfish in the cold mountain streams of the Andes

    After arriving in Cusco, we had planned a short tour of the city. The historic Inca city has plenty to offer, and even the main square in the centre is well worth a visit.

PUSH messages from JBL

What are PUSH messages? As part of the W3C standard, web notifications define an API for end-user notifications that are sent to the user's desktop and/or mobile devices via the browser. Notifications appear on the end devices as they are familiar to the end user from apps installed on the device (e.g. emails). Notifications appear on the end user’s device, just like an app (e.g. for emails) installed on the device.

A notification makes it possible to inform the user about an event outside the context of a website, such as a new blog post, a competition or a voucher.

These notifications enable a website operator to contact its users whenever they have a browser open - it doesn’t matter whether the user is currently visiting the website or not.

To be able to send web push notifications, all you need is a website with a web push code installed. This allows brands without apps to take advantage of many of the benefits of push notifications (personalised real-time communications at just the right moment).

Web notifications are part of the W3C standard and define an API for end user notifications. A notification makes it possible to inform the user about an event, such as a new blog post, outside the context of a website.
