    I keep scrolling through all and seeing this re-posted over and over again, so to save anyone else the trouble- the NY Times interviewed one 73 year- old tribe elder who complained about the youth not following traditions.

    NGL, I wouldn’t mind chatting with some remote tribe in the Amazon. Interesting cultural exchange without the travel and potential for disease.

    It is based on NYTimes’ article, it’s archived in here.

    I’d recommend you to take a look @ it, peace out
