Awakening Hearts

ABOUT ME

Back in Philly after years of travel-wandering-studying. Soon to be taking a yoga teacher training in a prison, and raising rabbits in my backyard. I'm a permaculture instructor, entrepreneur, musician, and paddleboarder.

PHILOSOPHY

I live my life to create and act on an embiggened sense of selfishness. My kick is to inspire the regeneration of enjoyable, edible, ecological, expanding Edens.

I believe that Life is miraculous and anything that is alive is worthy of dignity and respect, and that all religious practices can contribute to such an affirming culture.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I enjoy meeting people from around the world and introducing them to rad underground parties and art gardens they would otherwise miss in the City of Brotherly Love.

Teach, Learn, Share

ReWildin' Out is the lifestyle of living as a wild family in brotherhood with all creatures. A mixture of the ancient arts of gatherer-hunters with the collective organizing techniques of today that utilizes all available technologies to develop expanding conscious co-evolution. Just as much based on inner clarity, communication, community & patterns of positive interactions with the local ecosystem out to the depths of the universe.
