From Santiago we took a flight to Puerto Maldonaldo in Amazon Basin, in Peru.
We had to change our flight twice so by the time we got there we didn´t know our names...
Following the Madre Dios river from Puerto Maldonado we found the best setting to enjoy the beauty of the jungle of the southern Peru.
Corto Maltes Inn where we were staying creates relax and enjoyable atmosphere. We were spoiled by healthy and delightful dishes created by a French chef.
The bungalows are very big, comfortable and safe in terms of all jungle species.
We took few excurcions to the primary forest and the lake in the heart of the jungle where we swam.
We learned fom the guide about faune and flora of the jungle and how natives are using it to live and heal themselves.
We visited native comunity and we have been explained the way they live in the jungle in their native Quechua language.
I have also learned that there is this plant in the jungle called Ayahuasca. Native shamans during the special ceremony are using this plant to connect with the spirits of the jungle and their higher consciousness.
They drink a brew from
jungle
In the bus to the port in Puerto Maldonado
W autobusie do portu w Puerto Maldonaldo the bark of the sacred plant which is prepared in special way for 12 hours.
Ceremony can be conduct only by the shaman who knows how to handle this medicine called sometimes Mother Ayahuasca.
There are special workshops where people are comming to participate in that ceremony to connect with their inner wisdom and appreciate gifts from Pachamama (Mother Earth).
