Pucallpa

I visited the Ucuyali river.

This is 3 hours out of Pucallpa, in a place called San Isabel de Biwanishu.




This is where I slept, on the hard floor.



 This is Jonas, he is an Ayahuasquero I met through Victoria. He is a Shipibo man.


In Pucallpa the ethnography of the indigenous culture is very present in the streets.





Going to the Zoo.


















This zoo was sad somewhat. If I was an animal I would want much more space and an area like where I am meant to live.....not a timber room with a cage like the monkeys.


This guy is bulding Jonas' healing centre.











Getting the monkey off my back was difficult.


Leaving the Zoo, in a few months this walkway will be underwater.


This is the pueblo of San Francisco, where Jonas was born. Soccer!

This textile is woven, then coloured with the bark you can see here.

This lady called something I forget makes textiles like this one. I bought this one.

God bless everyone.
