Jade Fort tells the story of her arrival in the Colombian Amazon, and her discovery of the first indigenous community, in the forest, along the Amazon River. She met Loïda, a woman who welcomed her into her home for a week.
“It was a real emotional, physical and cultural upheaval that I experienced, with many firsts: discovery of the Amazon rainforest (climate, vegetation and animals), of the indigenous culture (language, food, way of life, relationship with nature, spirituality) and self-discovery (team management, self-management, etc.).”
