A trip of a lifetime! An incredible opportunity to reconnect to a very rich part of Mother Earth and the Achuar people and their culture. Every part of the journey was well crafted, supported and the guide’s care and wisdom enabled each individual to take their own growth journey. Thank you for sharing and reminding me of the interconnectedness of all things and the importance of my role in stewardship.

This trip was outstanding. Everything was well organised from start to finish. It was nice to not think about any level of organisation whilst on the trip. The accommodation was well above what I had expected. Our guide 'Chumpi' was the most authentic knowledgeable and inspiring person we could have hoped for to be our guide. His deep connection to the Amazon, his culture and connection made it very meaningful. He shared his knowledge and stories with such passion and respect that it turned our visit into a truly unforgettable experience. I feel so grateful for this opportunity. Thankyou

I am filled with gratitude for this journey: An incredible opportunity to remember what truly matters in life. A chance to realign my inner compass. And a hugh acupuncture needle rigth into my solar plexus. :-)

What an amazing journey and what a gift still vibrating in me. Dancing with the Heart of the World and with our hearts, seeing and meeting such beautiful souls during this journey. Thanks to Susannah and Ya'Acov, to their team and to Estefania from the Pachamama Alliance. We were welcomed in a beautiful and strong way in the different lodges we stayed: in Naku, Charamensa, Wayusentsa, Kapawi in a genuine spirit, in the Rainforest. Strong encounters and sharing with the Sapara and the Achouar people in different ways. This is a one life journey that opened my eyes to the changing times they are directly facing and they are engaging their lives to protect the forest, for all of us and for the future of our planet. Thank you. With love and respect, Bouchra

I feel very happy, lucky and deeply grateful to have made the choice to join this magnificent journey with Pachamama Journeys and with Susannah and Ya'Acov Darling Khan from the School of Movement Medicine. I felt extremely well taken care of throughout the journey on a practical level and on a spiritual level. The group was also amazing and I enjoyed so much the joint adventure! So much laughter, care and support! My heartbeat has a new spring! I also want to express my deep gratitude and respect for the warm welcome and trust we received from the Sapara and Achuar communities and elders we visited and their generosity in sharing ancient wisdom with us, supporting us to remember and connect to our souls dreaming, our connection to the living earth, and our belonging to all beings. Alongside Susannah and Ya'Aacov and the two remarkable assistants Kaya and Anja, they were helping us to heal and make space for what is ready to emerge. Not new, but ancient, and alive. The practical exclusion of WIFI, emails, social media, phone calls etc also allowed for empty space to be infused with remembrance of belonging, nowhere else to be, the mind calm, the being strengthened by the infusion of the forest's many songs and oxygen, the luxuriating in the reciprocity of breathing together. My personal experience was one of dismantling a brittle "coverture", or being dismantled, to discover or reconnect to a deeper truth, letting go of unhealthy burdens, finding forgiveness, insights, trust and tenderness in this loving process. Some of it did not feel new in a way but brought to light in a felt sense like I have not yet experienced before. I am delighted! Big thank you also to my husband’s huge support and his trust and also my sons. I wish we can join altogether one day. I am a proud ally of the Fundacion Pachamama and the School of Movement Medicine. Thank you Arutam, thank you magnificence of life, thank you all, In reverence and love Johanna
