Nilton Santi

ARCHETYPE: Humble and genuine servant of medicine. Simplicity, purity and Quechua kindness.



PERSONAL JOURNEY: My name is Nilton Santi; I am from Cuzco (Peru) and descend from the Andean Quechua culture. I have lived for more than forty years in the Sacred Valley of the Incas, nestled in the sacred mountains or Apus (Andean deities) that protect and care for the inhabitants of this magical place.

Many years ago, I discovered the benefits and healing powers of the sacred medicinal plants that Pachamama (Mother Earth) offers us. Contacting sacred plants and sharing medicine in ceremonies are fundamental to my life. I have much experience working with the San Pedro (Huachuma), the grandmother Ayahuasca and the father Tobacco. Years working with master plants and assuming different roles taught me how to support brothers and sisters in the healing and cleansing processes they experience in sacred ceremonies.



ROLE: Medicine man. Guardian and musician of sacred ceremony space.
