it would cost me no money, but I should take potatoes and beef to the brujo's house
In Iquitos I went to the Brujo's house after leaving my passport and money with the local police, who were pretty kind and helpful. The setting was very welcoming with about a half dozen kids, wife and the brujo. I gave my gift and sat on the couch in the poor, crowded house with all the kids who liked my blond hair. The Brujo took the Ayahuasca with me, but warned we could not drink it all night, as would be the usual convention, as he had to drive taxi the next day. He openly warned me that I would have memory loss as the local brew apparently contained the equivalent of scopolamine, which is why the cops took my passport and money for our mutual safety.
I drank the brew, vomited a bunch into a conveniently placed gourd, and had a very short trip (seemed like) much like salvia. It was okay. I was returned to my $2.00 dollar a day hotel by the local police and picked up my money and passport without problem.
The trip was much like salvia, I was contained in a dew drop. Everything was cool. It was nowhere near as interesting as LSD. It did not change my life. All good but not great.
