Colombia

Arriving to Mocagua felt like stepping into a completely different world. A small indigenous village deep in the Amazon, here life follows the rhythm of the river and the jungle.

For the next 4 days, we were welcomed into a local family home of Teresa and Barto, not as guests, but as part of their everyday life. Sharing meals, stories, knowledge and memories.

No luxury, no rush, just nature, community, and a different way of living.Leggi altro

We had barely settled in Mocagua, and we were already off with Barto and Teresa to venture deep into the jungle. We were going to spend the night in a jungle shelter about an hour’s boat ride from the community.

In just one day, the jungle gave us so many first experiences:

✅ swimming in the Amazon River
✅ trying exotic fruits straight from the forest
✅ sleeping in hammocks
✅ getting caught in a tropical rainstorm for 20 minutes
✅ cooking local food wrapped in banana leaves
✅ fishing for piranhas
✅ watching a curious family of wild monkeys
✅ and even overcoming our fear of touching small jungle creatures

And this was only the beginning of our Amazon adventure.Leggi altro
