Seeking An Extraordinary Life
Things I want to do, see or experience on my journey. Work in progress!
- Drink absinthe in Paris.
- Experience as much art as possible, of every kind - from the free performance and sculpture of the Burning Man, to the old galleries of Europe. Maybe create my own too.
- Learn to dance.
- Recline in the shade in a dusty eastern city, in a white summer-weight linen suit and Panama hat, sipping a Singapore Sling (or a cup of Earl Grey, according to mood), and muttering "the heat, the damn heat".
- Eat as many things as possible that I'm unable to identify beforehand, and afraid to identify afterwards.
- Train with native shamans, doctors and medicine men. Shamanism is a huge part of my life, but my knowledge is very much based on book learning and personal experimentation. I want to get as much input as possible from real practitioners.
- Become as self-reliant and self-contained as possible. Learn to build my own shelters, find my own food and water, make my own medicine and tools. With a little help from the god of survival skills
- Spend as much time as possible with extraordinary people, people with amazing stories, histories, skills or body modifications.
Any further suggestions gratefully accepted - please use the Comments link below, I'll consider anything!
