SE Peru is a bit too far.... if one walks (got no car) . And if I sat on a hill of ants.... I'd suffer bites inside my pants.... UNLESS, I too, got a tarantula...., but maybe it's a bad idea.

Beautifully written. I can almost envisage this wonderful partnership from the depths of the Perivisn forests..❤️
