Indigenous community of Palma Real. Peru, 2014
In the heart of the Peruvian Amazon, and on the edge of the majestic Madre de Dios River, is the indigenous community of Palma Real. To get there if you have to do it aboard motorized canoes from Puerto Maldonado. Its inhabitants of the Esse Ejja ethnic group originally come from Bolivia. The economic activities they carry out are slash-and-burn agriculture, fishing, hunting and the gathering of chestnuts, wood and rubber. Fishing is a daily activity that is part of your daily life
