Detailed responses will only be accepted (feel free to reapply with more detail if at first not approved as a member). We suggest you pick a name other than your own if you want to maintain anonymity.: My purpose in life is to continually improve my natural hygienic lifestyle, contribute, and cheerfully share the vegan message daily!
Eating Raw since Jan, 2007....I have experienced several back and fourth learning experiences and may have more in the future, and that is ok.
Feel my best practicing Fruitarian 100percent (with lots of durian and bananas).

I am a happy person........I love to live simple and Minimalistic and leave as little footprint on this earth as possible.

I sold most everything I owned in 2006 so I could travel the world as a vagabonding vegan and enjoy new cultures, surf, cycle, run, read, relax, be voice for animals, eat fruit, be outside as much as possible,
I have explored Fiji, Tahitii, Australia, AFrica, Brasil, Peru, Mentawaii's, Indo, Philippines, Costa Rica, Panama, Colombia, Bali, etc.....and Now I am following the Durian trail in SE Asia from Penang Malaysia up to Chanthiburi Thailand and then back...

Philippines seems to have the best for me----Surf and durian together! (Lanuza area Nov, Dec.)

Please feel free to join in on some of this vagabonding life, it is way better then the 'working to buy more stuff life' that I once led.

tentative Schedule:
November 2010
Hawaii!
December 2010:
Hawaii
January 2010
Brasil or Philippines

lets go again!
Having a place to connect with other like minds is very important to me. I have not met many vegans while traveling SE Asia the last year, so this site helps inspire me and keep me sane.

It is so refreshing when I meet someone that is practicing a Natural Hygienic lifestyle and if they happen to be passionate about durian, then we will have even more fun together!

So lets go stick some stickers around the world together....I found this awesome sticker that I carry with me... check it out www.loveusnoteatus.com

One week fast complete!

Posted on November 3, 2010 at 8:10am 16 Comments 0 Likes

I broke my fast after one week. 3days DRY, and 4days WATER.....

We hear about the amazing benefits from fasting, and we hear about the disadvantages from Sincere, but "Sincerely Wrong" people. I believe with Millions of people Starving in this world we can handle a one week fast or until completion.

This wasnt easy for me, as some people claim. I felt i had a persistent desire to eat (same like we have before a mealtime) on day 5, 6, and 7 half the time. I loved how DEEP i… Continue

fasting to heal, in Hawaii

Arriving to Pohiki beach I saw Dr. Nick waiting for me....we connected very well then had a chat on the ocean waters. Nick makes you feel very

comfortable and is very humble with all his experiences and education.

The location for fasting is surrounded by lava rocks and 10minute walk

to water access (tidepools). He has a small pool onsite. The house is

from Philippines to Hawaii, Durian is rocking

Posted on August 11, 2010 at 2:52pm 5 Comments 0 Likes

Leaving DAvao City PHilippines has been challenging. The durian season was building sooo strong...piles everywhere, and the price was dropping approaching 50cents/pound. Even though you can buy durian fresh all year long there, the strong seasons are more special. The durian culture is sooo profound, most everyone can afford it and appreciate it.

Hanging out with Dr. Robert Lockhart, my amazing, inspiring, fun friend was perfect. He is 66 years young and a committed fruitarian fro 30… Continue

Been following your journey with raw foods when you and harley were doing your thing in asia. Lost track of where you are now but have just seen in a post that you have been to rio before? I am heading there this tuesday and was wondering if you have any good tips for me. Like good hostel or place to stay. Ideally I would like to rent a cheap room for a month so if you know anything please get in touch.

If it is easier you can always add me on skype and we can talk on there
