I am traveling with my wife, Victoria. We are both clowns, and have just graduated from a physical theater school in Blue Lake, California. This is our honeymoon, as we've just gotten married on July 12!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Alessandra drove an old school bus full of 25 Wixatika (Huichol) shaman to the desert to harvest peyote cactus.

Teach, Learn, Share

Alessandra and Victoria have been studying clown, butoh, Alexander Technique, mask making, puppeteering, and other performance arts.

Alessandra also managed and taught at a grassroots mushroom education center in Guatemala for several years years, and therefore knows quite a bit about mushroom cultivation, ecology, herbalism and medicinal mushrooms, and psychedelics (history, cultural use, chemistry, personal experience). She is also very into mythology and cosmology.

What I Can Share with Hosts
