Long time ago I had visited Iquitos on the Peruvian Amazon while I was a student in Miami and had been wanting to go to the Amazon: Colombian and Brasilian
A chance arose a couple of years ago and a chance meeting led me to the TICUNA indians and also a Cuban music teacher living in Puerto Narino.
I have been a regular visitor to the region since then, not all visits had been pleasant. It is not a place you invite city people to come who are bothered by mosquitoes and dirty streets and lack of tasty food and wine..
2018 I went there twice, the one in January was very pleasant and the one in July was a disaster, but all is forgiven.
I hope my relationship with the Ticuna and other Indians along the Amazon continue.
