Karen morris-lanz is my best mates mums who expereinced life in a tribe. The mnew meaning in her life by spending a month with the Waorani tribe deep in the Ecuadorian Amazon Jungle.
Bameno is four days down a river on a dugout canoe from the nearest town, and does not, as yet have a postal address.
She ended up getting hitched to the tribe's only bachelor and being wooed by the hunter with dead monkeys and birds.
The mother-of-two had hoped to find new meaning in her life by spending a month with Waorani tribe deep in the Ecuadorian Amazon jungle.
But they were appalled to find she was unmarried and promptly decided that what was missing in her life was a husband.
Tribe hunter Ewenginto declared he was "Happy" as soon as he met Karen and set out to impress her so that she would stay and the pair of them wouldn't be lonely any more.
The tribe elders agreed it was a great idea and threw a wedding party for the unsuspecting Karen and her groom.
Karen was a little suprised when she realised what was happening, but says it was highly flattering and very moving that the tribe wanted her to stay so much and be part of their lives.
Her final parting with Ewenginto in the BBC 2 documentary was as tear-jerking as any Hollywood movie romance.
Ewenginto declared he would be her husband for ever and would always wait for her. "I shall think of you every night," he said sadly as Karen fought unsuccessfully to stop her tears
