I am currently saving up money for a trip to peru sometime in the next 10-12 months...I have some in mind that I am looking into from over at the aya forums..but I am on here more so I just thought I would ask here..

I will prob spend most of my time in iquitos, so healers in that area are ideal..
I was looking into this one..

I want to drink with a few different healers down there, so I am just sort of getting an idea now so it's not all last minute when i do end up going..I am planning on staying at one retreat, and then having a few single sessions with other shamans around iquitos, and maybe then having some more ceremonies with whoever I connect with the best..and then hopefully to the coast to surf and if possible some pedro ceremonies..

Also another thing I am thinking about is weather or not I will need malaria shots if I am more or less in the iquitos area..is it necessary or is that only if I am heading deeper into the jungle?
 
Percy has a good reputation and is well know in the ayaforums. I'm on the same quest asking the same questions. Here's a couple that come highly reccomennded from a highly credible source.

This one is in equador : Feather Crown Ayahuasca Ecuador

I'm planning a trip to peru inquitos/macchu piccu trip.....the one thing that i keep hearing is this term "aya tourism" and us westerners putting certain currendero's on a higher level then other currendero's. I plan on going this year and i want to experience the shipibo culture but i've been hearing that there is a lot less "ayahuasca Bussiness" attitude in equador.

I am due to go to a retreat with feathercrown in ecuador, in less than two weeks now... really looking forward to it, expect a full report when I return.

I find it very promising that this perspective is already present in our world, that western people can actually come to such realizations (even if not easily).

This video should be a must-see for everyone who's getting involved in shamanism.

Yea that's a really interesting vid.
 
I saw that vid a while ago, glad it was posted here though to watch again..I find it sad because we all have our own animistic heritages that we can look back on. I am really trying to find out as much as I can about european paganism, it would be awesome to go back to my ancestrail homeland and learn from a saami shaman that still uses the amanitas..something I want to do one day for sure.
 
Yes thanks for posting the vid, he raises some really important points, especially relevant for me with my upcoming trip.

I think his final point, of being very careful, and being a 'fly on the wall' are important. To avoid the 'Tunnel Vision' where you only see plants/entheogens from these cultures, and not the people. And to avoid the exoticism, orientalism (if that is the right word) of shamanic cultures. That at the end of the day, they are all just people like all of us.
