BOLIVIA 2003 STUDY TRIP
Did you know that Bolivia has much
more to offer than just beautiful Hardwood Flooring? In the heart of South

wonders among its immense expanse of rain forests.
You are probably familiar with South
American tropical wood species. Jolyka’s Bolivia 2003 Study Trip
offers you a unique opportunity to get an inside look at the tropical forest
ecosystem, FSC certification and JOLYKA Hardwood Flooring production as well as
an in-depth view of Bolivia and its fascinating culture.
