At the age of eight, I clearly remember my father getting ready to go through a thick forest to visit my grandmother. It was a sunny morning in Requena, a village in Ucayali. I just was thrilled about the idea of having that adventure that I got ready as soon as he told me to go with him.

During the journey everything seemed to go well, when suddenly some clouds gathered over the forest and it started to drizzle, however, we kept on walking. Once we arrived in a little cottage, I was so tired that I got slept while my father went out to hunt.

Later when I woke up, I realized that I was alone. At that time, I was so frightened that I decided to look for him around the cottage. A woman came to me and told me that she knew where my father was. I followed her, but couldn’t see her face. Then my father appeared with a little deer on his shoulders. That one meeting made it a day I will never forget.
