I want to do this. I have been offered multiple times here in the states from a native friend of mind but every time he asked me I had to work the next day and couldn't do it.
My roommate in Miami did it. The kid never does drugs, very rarely even drinks, maybe 4 times a year. He said it was a life changing experience for him. When he found out I was in Peru he highly recommended I find a shaman and do it, but when I tried going to the amazon, all the travel agencies were trying to way over charge me. That was another thing I hated about Peru, they are constantly trying to rip off gringos. My friend is an American living in Lima and married to a Peruvian girl. When they see she is with him, they try and rip them off every time. She's a hard headed one though. She won't hop into a cab even if she thinks she's being over charged just one sol, which is about $.40.
