A Journey of Friendship, Not Just a Retreat
This is more than an experience—it’s a chance to step into a way of life where community, connection, and nature come first. The Huni Kuin people will not just be your hosts; they will be your teachers, your brothers, and your sisters.
Here, we gather as equals. We sit in circles, share meals, and hold space for each other’s journeys. You will leave with new friendships, a deeper understanding of yourself, and a heart full of memories that will last a lifetime.
If you feel the call, know that a family is waiting to welcome you with open arms.
