Introduction Traveling on Amazon is a dream of millions of people from all over the world. Obviously, when it comes to the Amazon, there are still many people; they will soon associate it with a nightmare and adrenaline, piranha, pythons and a wild adventure filled with other species we do not know. However, the progress of modern technology has brought Amazon people close to you and the days that tie Amazon's trip to horror movies have been forgotten.

After graduating from college in May 2015, I went to the Amazon rainforest of Ecuador with some of the professors of my alma mater to spend with indigenous people (called Sarayaku). This trip is part of the initiative to build partnerships between universities and tribes. A professor recommended me to photograph and record our trip and relationship with our tribe. This gave me a deep impression. I was fascinated by the original emotions, emotions, and energy provided by the trip.

We experienced a fairly adventurous journey from the last stop in southern Peru, the beautiful mountains, and the colonial city Arequipa to the hot and humid jungle of Iquitos Amazon. Amazon rain forest gateway and access point in Peru! I wrote this adventure in the last rock 'n roll article. The Iquitos side is surrounded by the Amazon River and the other side is surrounded by the Amazon rainforest, so the only way to reach Iquitos is by plane or boat. Therefore Iquitos is the world's largest city and can not reach the road. For this reason, Iquitos is also an important port city in Peru. After weeks of traveling, many goods and goods float on the Amazon River on the Atlantic Ocean. This trip is over 2,200 miles. It took a week, so we decided to fly because we did not have time to go to the Amazon on that boat.
