Naked Wednesday - Micke's House

This Wednesday the Tapi and friends went to Micke's home and performed a tribal blessing and cleansing, followed by a lot of dancing, beer, smoke and other substances...

  • A beautiful bare native woman with a flower headdress poses, while a bare native man sits relaxed against a rock in a lush jungle
    The Shaman starts Dancing
  • People start dancing and playing drums
  • Everyone walks to Muddy Waters to Micke’s House
  • The shaman, with body art and a floral crown, raises a staff while addressing the gathered tribe in a verdant landscape.
