Summary Six women get to grips with new lifestyles, families and communities in some of the world's most remote tribes to find out whether 'West is best'. The women are expected to spend up to a month living with their new families, fully immersing themselves into their new culture. Each woman must work, eat and sleep exactly as the other tribal women in order to experience what it is really like to live as a member of their community.This week we follow Karen, a 46-year-old successful businesswoman and workaholic, as she joins the Waorani, a tribe isolated deep within the Ecuadorian Amazon jungle. Once known as an extremely violent people, they often attacked intruders who ventured onto their territory, but they greet Karen warmly, and one bachelor in particular makes a great deal of effort to impress her.PRODUCTION DETAILS:A Diverse Bristol production in association with Goldhawk Media for BBC
