Nauta is a town in the northeastern part of Loreto Province in the Peruvian Amazon, roughly 100 km south Iquitos, the provincial capital. Nauta is located on the north bank of the Marañón River, a major tributary of the Upper Amazon, a few miles from the confluence of the Río Ucayali.
Established by Manuel Pacaya–Samiria, a leader of the Cocama peoples, following the 1830 uprising at the Jesuit mission of Lagunas, Nauta soon became the primary commercial hub of the Peruvian selva baja (known also as Omagua, or the Amazonian lowlands). In 1853, a Brazilian owned paddle steamer made it all the way to Nauta.
Nauta is the primary destination of the only major road leading out of Iquitos, and is a staging area for several ecotourism lodges and ships on the Marañòn River. Boats take passengers from Nauta to the Pacaya-Samiria National Reserve.
In 2013, residents of Nauta created a children's rap video in the Kukama-Kukamiria dialect, in collaboration with Radio Ucamara. The local radio station has been involved in conserving the language for "a few years," and "started managing a school called Ikuar, with the goal of teaching the language through songs and traditional story telling."
A través de una canción con ritmos modernos y tradicionales, niños de Nauta no dejan que su dialecto natal desaparezca En Nauta, Loreto, no quieren que muera la lengua kukama-kukamiria. Por eso la ONG Create Your Voice y la radio local Ucamara prepararon un video para rescatarla del riesgo de extinción. El resultado: "Kumbarikira", una canción con ritmos hip hop y tradicionales que es cantada por niños orgullosos de hablar kukama. La canción "Kumbarikira" habla de un relato kukama, el del gallinazo, al que nadie quiere y todos rechazan. Esto se convierte en una metáfora de la realidad que vive este pueblo, excluido por muchos años, tratando de que se preste más atención a esta cultura.

As U.S.-Cuba relations normalize, the island nation will quickly become a tourist haven. CBSN contributor Mark Murphy shares his best tips on traveling around the country.
Traveling through Nauta, Peru on our way from the airport to Treehouse Lodge. The majority of people seem to own these "three wheeled motocars" to travel through town. They share the road (sometimes in uncomfortably close quarters) with the other occasional vehicles like pick-up trucks or Mack dump trucks. Motorcycles (Honda specifically) seem to be the preferred mode of transportation. The town of Nauta also has a small Honda motorcycle plant.

We visited: La Habana, Viñales, Varadero, Trinidad, Cienfuegos, Santa Clara. Some tips: Sleep in "Casas particulares", cheaper and you know better the locals. In La Habana there is a really cheap one (shared room) called Hostal Hamel, 5 eur per night and they give you the address and make the booking for other towns hostels. But in Viñales we slept in Casa de Pipo y Mercedes, really really friendly and the house was full equipated and so well located. (for any reservation email yanielmiranda82@nauta.cu) In Viñales its common to go to the same caves by horse, but its possible to go walking, its about an hour by walk. Not as Trinidad, where the horse riding trip leads you to some amazing waterfalls (Cascada de Javira), and the way its about 10 kms, and you pay less for the horses, save ...

Que te dit ton coeur, lui qui ne demande qu'à voir
Au-delà des leurres, des fruits du hasard
Il est des mystères, des songes qui parfois t'égarent
Comme en une prière, il suffit de croire
Quel est le visage qu'adoptera ton destin
De son début jusqu'à la fin
Il suffit de croire
Observe les présages qui jalonnent ton chemin
Que te dit ton coeur, lui qui ne demande qu'à voir
Au-delà des leurres, des fruits du hasard
Refrain:
Entre les lignes, Kechef Touha
Y voir un signe, Min Al Rabba
Frôler les cimes, Fi Rouhouqa
Toucher l'infime, Al Tarika
Tout près de la Terre
Les yeux caressant le ciel
Cherchent l'éphémère en une étincelle
J'attends cette fleur
Ce doux don de l'éternel
Qui, dès qu'il se meurt
Sonne comme un rappel
Quel est le visage qu'adoptera ton destin
De son début jusqu'à la fin
Il suffit de croire
Observe les présages qu jalonnent ton chemin
Et t'expriment des lendemains
Sonnent comme un rappel
Refrain
Certaines vérités empruntent de singulières voix
Il suffit de croire
Fuit la cécité et soit éclairé dans tes choix
Dans les courbes que dressent tes pas
