Mountain Love!

The past weekend was spent high up in the mountains, full of new knowledge on living a sustainable life with Chris, Centehua, Jeremy & Eva! Together they make the perfect amount of wildness, union, laughter, and compassion.

Valentina organized the trip together along with Sebastian, Victoria and I. We shot multiple videos on Permaculture; constructing a backyard optimized for rain water distribution, compositing and recycling; the benefits of holy humanure, raw recipes, mountain spring water, super enriched gardening, and good ol' fire dancing!

This was truly the best experience in connecting with nature, AND without wasting any water or materials. The night sky was BREATHTAKING. The spring water DELICIOUS. Raw food goodness & hot cacao ...WOOWW.

Vale serenaded us throughout the night with 3 bottles of wino and became a dictator during the fire dance! HAHA. Seriously so much fun. We decided to stay an extra night to fully take in the love <3

Here are the photos from the trip. The videos will be posted soon!

We had to drive up a nice dirt hill to reach the house

The series is based on 3 unusual ladies who work at an "in-convenience" store.

P.S: They are currently hiring :0 !

Sunday Fun & Zandra Rhodes

Spent a Geo Caching adventure sunday with Daniel Pena & Gabriel Placensia. First gobbled down some discounted tamales at the farmers market, then proceeded to find some caches. First two were a fail, but since It was my first time I was determined.







We found a nice simple one inside an old phone booth. I wanted more! Took a drive down to Balboa park and met up with Valentina Deneken.



This one took forever!! And the Geo Master Gabe found it!
Happy and Satisfied at last :D

 The next day, Sean Maristela and I went for a nice hike through the Bonita lakes (which I've never been to) and Mission Hills Trail. Felt very connected to Earth and Sean!








On Wednesday, David Corrales invited me to help out on a charity shoot for the New Children's Museum, hosted by Zandra Rhodes!




It was really nice to chat with her after seeing the amazing exhibit at the Mingei Museum located in Balboa Park. Shes a wild one!

Self Realization Center

Lovely Friday afternoon with my brother Rio and lover Victoria. I also took my parrot Pesto out for the first time! It was so much fun, he definitely enjoyed all the attention although he did want to get off my fingers and play ;) His wings aren't clipped so might've taken a nice flight away!

I've heard there is an energy vortex located in the gardens. I can feel the peace here. It is a must visit if you enjoy a quiet space to meditate, or observe your surroundings.

Thank you Swami for finding and founding this area!
