Orientation

This river journey is a shared, immersive experience shaped by rhythm, presence, and relationship — with the river, the forest, the group, and the communities who host us.

Days may include long stretches on the water, guided excursions, walking on uneven terrain, heat, humidity, and moments of simplicity.

This application helps us sense whether this experience is appropriate and supportive at this time.

What is calling you to a river-based Amazon journey at this moment? (What feels alive, curious, or unresolved?)

What are you hoping to experience or receive from this journey? (For example: rest, perspective, connection, learning, reflection.)

What does “comfort” mean to you in a remote or nature-based setting? (There is no judgment here — this helps with group fit.)

How do you typically show up in group settings over several days? (For example: quiet, social, observant, adaptable.)

How do you usually respond when plans change or conditions are unpredictable?

Physical Readiness & Logistics

Are you comfortable spending extended time on a boat and participating in light to moderate physical activity (walking, climbing in/out of boats, heat)?

Yes

Mostly

Not Sure

Do you have any medical, mobility, or dietary considerations we should be aware of? (This is not a medical screening — simply information for care.)

Are you traveling alone or with others? If with others, please share names.

Investment Orientation

To support clarity and respectful use of time, a baseline investment is shared here.

The River Journey is a fully curated immersion that includes the boat, crew, meals, guided excursions, logistics, and coordination with local partners.

Current investment range:USD $6,000 – $8,000 per person, depending on dates, duration, and configuration.

This range is shared to support orientation. It is not a guarantee of acceptance or availability.

Does this general investment range feel workable for you at this time?
