Adventure on the Amazon

Posted by Kirsten Koza on June 14, 2015 in peru, writers' expeditions magazine | 108 Views

TheBlot screen capture amazon storyI wrote an article (published in TheBlot magazine, Wall St., New York) about a boat cruise on Dawn on the Amazon, and I didn’t mention shrunken heads once in it, which was difficult because I thought about headhunters (not the ones who find you jobs but the other kind) every single night as I lay on the boat deck while everyone else was snoring. I snore too but not while I’m awake freaking myself out with scary thoughts. I did however mention pink dolphins and dolphin rape.
