MY HANDPAN JOURNEY
In August of 2024 I bought my first handpan after seven years of wanting to play this instrument. It felt like the right time to embark on this journey and a few weeks later I bought my B2 Celtic from meridian and was lucky to find an E Amara 20 at an amazing price. Any videos of progress are posted to various social platforms:

WILD BIOME 2.0
1st April 2025 marks the start of a new journey into eating only wild food for 3 whole months. I loved the last experience two years ago so I wanted to see how much of what I learned last time would help in this project. Like before we will have our blood tests and gut tests taken at the beginning and end of the 3 months but no discusting muffins! Wahoo!
The other part I loved about the last Wild Biome project is the community that formed during meetups and splitting the load of gathering and preparing wild food. It turned into a communal endeavour, just like our hunter gather days and this part I missed the most since then and it was one of the biggest factors of me joining this diet again for 3 whole months!
Please see my youtube channel below for video updates during the project.

Poetry and Writing
You LIVE; You LEARN; You EXPERIENCE; You BECOME;
And what you live is the path that you chose
And what you learn is what you choose to believe
And what you experience is what you choose to see
And what you become is who you choose to be…
And thus, heed my words of simple advice
That life is not bound by rope, or a vice
You are free to choose – so choose at will!
And become your dreams, your wishes, and thrills;
Simply believe; - Richard Mawby
