Don Alejandro Cirilo Perez Oxlaj, Wandering Wolf, usually called Tata, the guide of the Mayan Council of Elders and former Mayan representative in the Guatemalan government, visited Holland together with his companion Grandmother Elisabeth Araujo from September 24 to 27, 2013. The visit took place on the occasion of a shaman meeting in Epe, in the Centrum Oostraven, in Holland. They were joined at the meeting by Hopi shaman Ruben Saufki and Chilean Mapuche shaman Carola Angelica Esparza Calderon. They were invited by the Dutch shaman Jos Kester. All three groups, Tata and Elisabet, Ruben with his son, and Carola, each had a day to themselves to share their knowledge and perform ceremonies with us participants.

Tata's presence and his fire ceremony were the highlight of the shaman meeting. As he was already well into his 80s, he hardly ever traveled overseas, so we participants saw his visit as a very special gift.

On this occasion, the movie SHIFT OF THE AGES was shown in his presence.
