Aca Alamsyah, the host of Back to Nature, is a passionate wildlife guide and guard. Born in 1966 in Medan, Indonesia, he grew up in a privileged environment and received a good education. However, his love for the outdoors led him to drop out of law school and become a volunteer at the Rehabilitation Centre for Orangutans in Bukit Lawang. He quickly fell in love with the jungle and its inhabitants and has been working as a wildlife guide and guard in the Leuser National Park ever since. Aca has dedicated his life to the conservation of the rainforest. By buying hectares of public jungle along the border of Gunung Leuser National Park, he wants to save and preserve the natural habitat of all rainforest inhabitants in North Sumatra. Your stay helps us expand our mission of protecting this fragile ecosystem. Aca's knowledge of the rainforest is vast, and he is passionate about sharing his love of nature with others. He is a skilled guide who can take you on safe and enjoyable excursions into the jungle. He is also a great cook and loves sharing traditional Indonesian cuisine with his guests.
