Raquel Toniolo

Raquel Toniolo, Assistant Producer

Name: Raquel Toniolo

Job: Assistant Producer

Luxury item: Camelbak (inflatable water pack) for the hot and long treks and my MP3 player for a tranquil night on my hammock.

Phobia: Being bitten or stung by something truly deadly.

Will miss: The cosiness of my flat, my friends and my lovely partner.

Looking forward to: A 30 minute treat by myself in the jungle, where I can forget all the stress and pressure around me and succumb to the sounds of the forest. Peace!

Dreading: Mucuim - horrible tick larvae that use you as a host for a couple of days, then jump off your skin to complete their life cycle, leaving behind an uncontrollable itchiness that lasts for months.
