This journey is for those who seek to experience spirituality as presence, not concept.
For those who want to reconnect with nature as a living teacher, and who wish to rediscover the joy of play seriously.
It is for those who long to remember the real sense of community: that nothing lives alone.
WHAT GUIDE US
We are not tourists, we are guests of the Jungle!
  • Conscious Travel
    We move with awareness that our presence shapes nature, culture, and people. Traveling consciously means slowing down, respecting rhythms, and choosing to protect and support instead of consume.
  • Wisdom of the Forest
    Ancestral knowledge cannot be rushed — it is passed down from generation to generation. In the forest, spirituality is not an idea but a living presence. By listening, observing, and being with those who carry this wisdom, we open ourselves to learn what only the jungle can teach.
  • Playful Creation
    Maybe you don’t speak Portuguese, but there is a universal language: laughter. Every day, we join the children of the community in workshops of art, theater, and play — and through this playful exchange, we reconnect with our inner child and co-create joy across cultures.

What we learn together will not come from the internet or dictionaries,
but from sharing the wisdom rooted in the simplicity of daily life,
in harmony with the jungle within us.
The Adventure
Our journey unfolds in three chapters.
  • THE EMBRACE
    Arrival & Preparation (Jan 23–25)
    Arrive in Alter do Chão and feel the shift as the jungle begins to embrace you. Between group circles and the waters of the biggest aquifer in the world, we prepare and open ourselves with a temazcal (traditional sauna ritual) to let go of the ordinary and step into deep connection with the jungle.
  • THE DEEPENING
    Community Immersion (Jan 26–31)
    For an entire week, you’ll live as part of a riverside community — with guided walks in the jungle, sharing meals, and creating through art and play. Here, time slows down, and you may find yourself touched by simplicity, by silence, or by stories that change how you see the world.
  • THE WEAVING
    Celebration & Closure (Feb 1–3)
    As we journey back along the river on a traditional big boat, music, sunsets, and fire-roasted flavors invite us to celebrate life itself — in a typical way: with a Amazonian beach party, dancing, and the best food.
*Detailed program will be shared & co-created with participants

THE WEAVERS
We are the ones weaving threads of culture, care, and creativity. Holding space for you to feel belonging and to meet the giant forest within yourself.
  • Paloma Cores
    Dreamer and organizer of this journey. She lived in the jungle for four years, where the forest became her teacher. Paloma weaves art, community, and spirituality into every detail.
  • Ivan Saenz
    A circus artist for over 20 years, Ivan weaves our connection with local communities through playfulness and creativity.
  • Pati Romano
    Always ready to listen and with the best advice at hand, Patricia is a bridge between cultures. With decades of experience, she helps us weave knowledge and spirituality into daily life.
  • Terra Salomao
    A biologist and musician, Terra weaves this journey with magical languages — supporting us through the subtle communication of art and the harmony of well-cared spaces.

The hardest places to reach are often where magic is most concentrated!

The Amazon is one of them. To arrive there means crossing continents, rivers, and layers of yourself.
