Never Never Land

Never Never Land is an incredible farm who´s previous owner originated the frutarian diet, so you can imagine the huge variety of tropical fruits available right in front of my house. There are people here from all over the world, and there is always something exciting and new to experience. I drove an oxen team the other day, I have eaten all kinds of interesting foods, I´ve had intense talks and debates with people from all over, and I got Giardia! I have been reading almost nonstop during my free time, absorbing all kinds of new ideas about nutrition, diet, disease, spirituality, etc. This place is truly magical, and I feel lucky that I should be able to spend these weeks here. There is a gigantic tree near the river which must be several hundred years old. It is immense and there are all kinds of nooks to sit in and think or read or nap. There are three dogs native to the farm and each has their own quirks. Boomer is a Husky...who lives in the jungle. He takes his hot frustration out on the neighbors´ goats and chickens, so he is now permanently on a chain. Tuti is an annoying black lab mix who barks at anything that moves, but will protect any person on the farm with her life. Nova is the favorite of everyone here. She looks like a mostly white welsh corgi and she is extremely down to earth. Everyone is a good cook, and i´m learning how to make breads and all kinds of different dishes. That´s about it for now, i will hopefully post next weekend.
