Relocated in 2016 from California to Llandrindod Wells, Wales for my son (11 yr old) to know his UK family. I continue to enjoy learning about the history, beauty and the special people of this magical land. I like to be outdoors, go to workshops on personal growth, host dinners and dance! I'm part of Mankind Project (MKP) men's groups and I lead my own retreats. I also assist on ISTA Tantra Workshops worldwide. I strive to parent my son (and myself) with care and ease, choosing empathy over ordering each other about. Sometimes he has Couchsurfed with me and enjoyed Legos or skateboarding with my hosts' children, too. Some background about me. I lived 12 years in a temple as a Hare Krishna monk and traveled internationally teaching mantra meditation. Met my former spouse, forever co-parent and we had Michael in 2012. I enjoy hosting people and my place is a large victorian flat with an extra bedroom on the high street, just 100 yards from the train station. PHILOSOPHY To live authentically, and it's a lifelong practise. An examined life is worth living.
