I don't think anything is keeping you from doing it except your attachment to your current surroundings, maaaaan.

You're right, its my attachments like work, bills, rent. I can't just get up and go for more than 2 weeks. Once I save some money, maybe I can do something like this later in life.

Hey Moth! That sounds divine, I had no idea you were out there.

If your still there in May you should definitely check out Achemeyez on the Big Island..

It's a visionary art festival with incredible artists and musicians.

also: this looks incredible!

thanks everyone!  The community is completely off the grid.  No net access.  I have to hitch to Pahoa to use the internet.  I'll post pics soon!  I tried the other day but the shroomery wouldn't upload them for me.

So how does it work?

Do you have to work, and contribute to the community?  How does the community and it's members sustain themselves?


Everyone works for 5 hours on Tuesday.  Tuesday is work day...the rest of the time we just sorta exist, go to the warm ponds, the beaches, into Hilo, or just hang around the jungle in the community, picking/eating fruit.  It's like a Shroomery gathering 24/7.  Very eclectic, unique people.

Kitchen duty is one day a week for each person.

Yoga is every morning, mon - fri, for 2 hours.  The yoga teacher just moved into the community full time even though she had offers worldwide to teach at expensive resorts.  She's Reiki attuned, and has studied yoga intensely for 16 years. 

the yoga really draws the community together.

Tomorrow a bunch of us are going to the Rainbow Gathering on the Big Island!

Yay, I really wanna go to that!  I'm super stoked about the Rainbow Gathering this weekend.

Well, my original plan was to sell my car and use the money to get myself to Hawaii and then live an isolated existence in the jungle for a few months. 

But one of my online friends suggested this eco-community to me as a place to get grounded after such a big move. 

I wasn't planning on going there, prepared to stick to my solo-journey...

Then I met this dude at the bus station in Hilo and he said he was headed there, asked if I wanted to come, and since I had nothing going on having just gotten to the islands, I was like...sure, why not?

It has turned out to be exactly the experience I needed. 

Though I do still intend to set off on my own eventually.  I wild-camped in a cow pasture a few days ago, hunting for magic mushrooms.  (found some!)

And I might go to Kauai in March to live on the beach for a few weeks. 

But right now I feel very happy with my life...doing my best to get grounded and super-healthy while I'm here surrounded by such supportive people.
