DAY 1: IQUITOS / ECOLODGE

We start our adventure through the Peruvian jungle at the airport in the city of Iquitos, then we will move to the town of Nauta, the first town founded by…

Our first day we just had some hiking around the area to get oriented and learn a bit about the rainforest in the area. We saw fire ants, which apparently some people with numbness will allow to bite them to get feeling back. Seems extreme, but I don’t know what I’m talking about so whatever.

The guide also cut into a tree for sap to but on our bug bites, because there were a stupid amount of mosquitoes everywhere trying to eat me alive. I thought the most interesting/concerning at the time thing was when the guide gave us a little piece of twig and told us to bite into it. My mouth immediately went completely numb, and I briefly considered whether it would be good business to poison travelers, but I calmed down...

Turns out, it was a Novocaine plant - amazing! Tons of stuff for pharmacies apparently comes from the jungle. I guess I knew that but still. Moral of the story: your guide probably isn’t trying to poison you.
