Looking for a dozen intrepid seekers for each of the Jaunts. Looking
for people who want to see and be in deep Amazon jungle; people who want to
experience ayahuasca and the Matses’ medicines Sapo and Nu-nu in their natural
settings; people who don’t mind dirt under their fingernails if they get it
because they were walking in high canopy jungle or in a primordial swamp or collecting
wild foods or even making clay pots. I’m looking for people who want to collect
the medicines they’ll use and watch their preparation, people who would rather
participate than observe and be served. I want a small group of curious people,
humans interested in their personal growth, in the spirit world, in the
Northwest Amazon as it is today but may not be tomorrow. I want people who see
bathing in the beautiful Aucayacu river as an opportunity, not as a poor
substitute for a hot shower; people who view the chance to eat a few local
magic mushrooms while traveling overnight on a flat-bottomed river boat on the
Amazon as a once in a lifetime thrill, and see night canoeing in dugouts while
searching for medicine frogs a rare and wonderful opportunity. In other words,
I want anyone who sees living as a bit of a risk but one worth taking.
And if you join, my team—which will outnumber the
guests—and the medicines and the jungle and the rivers and I will all work our
collective asses off to give you something you’ll hold onto for a very long
time. The medicines will astound you, the people will thrill you, the jungle
will amaze you. So what are you waiting for? Drop me a line at
peterg9@yahoo.com or head over to the pgorman.com website for more info, photos,
and an idea of the trip itinerary and costs.
