This tribe in the Amazon, the Huaorani, I have never met them. I have not eaten monkey nor cooked a pot of curare. Heard about them through the lianas of stories, books and dreams. For this I have to thank Joe Kane (Savages), Laura Rival (Trekking through History), Jonathan Sparrow MW (Rainforest Medicine) and the Huaorani crew (Bete Quiwiguimamo Salvando el bosque para vivir sano). Theres a few movies out too which I’d love to see – End of the Spear and Queen of the Amazon. Maybe tomorrow before I go to sleep…This is what I have grasped so far:
A big thank you to Dolores Gamez for help with Spanish phrases and grammar!
Oh Monkeyface eel
I love you like a grandpa
You are the greatest fish
See you in the rocks!
