Thank you for allowing me to spend time at your home. The path that lead me here has been a long time in the making. I’m blessed to be fortunate enough to find myself here this time around. It has been truly amazing. I will find you all again soon in the dream world so we can continue to smile and laugh together. Thank you Don Lucho for your teachings and guidance, thank you Monica for the food and positive energy Thank you Phillip for the everyday contribution you give to make this the most comfortable environment possible. Also to my good friend Poochie, the cat who never sleeps. I love you all and will always think of this place fondly.

My two weeks spent in my Ayahuasca retreat here at Selvamadre have been magical! Right from the introduction to the family I have felt a strong sense of wellbeing and like it’s at home away from home. Don Lucho ensures that your days spent here are varied in exciting activities, which included seeing some amazing species of fish and other mammals. Monica’s food is to a high standard which you would expect in an expensive restaurant, considering the availability of ingredients from Padre Cocha it’s second to none in taste! Philippe has a very welcoming and kind apprentice to us from the start and a very helpful translator although the souther British accent is a struggle to understand at times for him and others! This experience has been so much more enjoyable than I had hoped, have made some friends for life and I hope to return again soon.

Wow, my experience here has been incredible I think this has been one of the best week of my life. Taking Medicine here has been a very eye opening experience and I think I have found out a lot about myself and about life in general. I definitely plan on coming back and doing Ayahuasca retreat here again after I have spent some time with meditation so I can have more mental discipline and so I can have a more spiritual experience. I have had a lot of fun here the entire week I have stayed, Don Lucho and Monica have been absolutely the best, they are one of the nicest person I have ever met, they made me feel at home here and the food was absolutely excellent, Monica is a wonder cook! I will forever remember and cherish my experience here and I will miss everyone. I have met here very much, I will recommend Selvamadre to everyone that ask me about doing Ayahuasca. This is such a beautiful place! I love you all!

We had an incredible stay with Lucho, Monica and all the other people at Selvamadre. We had our first ceremony ever Monday night with Lucho and it was an amazing experience. The energy was strong and so our personal experiences which included plenty of visions and hallucinations. Lucho helped us and the others, Philippe made the experience secure, joyful and amazing. We walk away as changed men. Besides the ceremony the stay has been nice, very good atmosphere, good food and plenty of it in tranquil and calm environment. We would definitely recommend a stay at this retreat.
