Meet Adam Piotrowski. He is 35 and has a job unlike any of us.
He takes the rich deep into the jungles to live with Indonesia's remote tribes.
You're probably going, "Meh, so what?"
The tribes that Adam takes his clients to are some of the world's most dangerous tribes for headhunting people.
Or at least that is how the media portrays them to be.
"They're actually very friendly though they do keep their distance in the beginning," Adam tells Mashable Southeast Asia.
The former conflict journalist for a Polish news agency had been visiting these tribes for the past 14 years.
"I discovered them when I was covering a story on the Free Papua Movement sometime in 2004," he says to me through an interview via Skype.
When he left journalism and settled down in Bali, Indonesia, Adam decided to set up his destination management company Far Horizon.
"I've been always thinking on how to sustain myself so far away from home. I don't have the required skills to make money apart from my experience in travelling and storytelling."
His clients range from multi-millionaires to top leaders of multinationals with the cost for each trip ranging between US$5,000 for a person in a group of six to US$8,000 per individual for couples.
Adam says the logistics to plan and initiate these expeditions can get quite costly.
Among the tribes that he takes them to live with are the Yali and the Korowai tribes.
But hold on, you say. Isn't Adam exploiting these tribes?
"I get this question a lot," he laughs. "It is the tribes' choice to make if they wish to make contact with the outside world."
He explains that if the tribes don't want to meet anyone, they would move in deeper into the jungles.
"Most of the time, they make the choice to make contact because for them there is an opportunity to learn and share from people like us."
But of course, to visit these tribes and live among them certain rules and guidelines should be followed.
According to the self professed anthropologist, the tribes do not have a hierarchy system. The Korowai people split ways whenever there arises a leadership dispute because they prefer living in smaller groups.
This was the same tribe which had eaten Michael Rockefeller, son of then-New York governor Nelson Rockefeller in 1961.
"The last known incident of cannibalism was in 1999 - which was pretty recent," Adam adds.
However, unlike their depictions in the media, the Korowai do not kill and eat because they're hungry. Cannibalism is a ritual for these tribes.
"The ritual has a deeper and bigger meaning for each tribes. Some do it as offerings to their ancestors. The Yali do it as it part of their rite to become a warrior."
But the traditions, way of lifes and tribal identities of these tribes are gradually fading away thanks to rampant deforestation.
What took over 50,000 years for major civilizations to evolve culturally, technologically and economically, the process is expedited in under two generations for the Korowai.
"I had met one Korowai tribesman who used to live in a tree house 14 years ago. Today he has become entrepreneurial by providing boat ride services to visitors."
There are others, sadly, who are unable to adapt or cope and they fall off.
"As a matter of fact, I'm going to document them because I do not know how it will end for these tribes."
Adam's documentary, filmed and produced independently, will be released on March 2019. If you're interested to get to know more about Far Horizon, click on the blue words.
