I'm delighted to have been invited to join you and the other dozen souls on here. I look forward to being inspired by everyone. Thanks Jay!
I'm Anthony, originally from New Zealand, now living on Samos Island in the Aegean.
On my forty year wander after leaving school, I have taught myself how to design homes and had a successful architecture practice. I designed in earth and straw, too. I co parented children, and now have 8 grandchildren. All except one are in NZ, so I haven't seen them for several years. In this century, I have lived in an intentional community, and ended up running the place until I went exploring. I went online and found all sorts of things there, and then to America, where I worked in the mountains, met my second wife, a portrait artist, and renovated an abandoned house on the Canadian border. Now we live in Greece, although it is not our 'home'. We're still wondering where that is - and have considered Panama, Jay!
My obsession for a long while has been to understand why people did things, to find out the nature of human motivation, in other words. I have concluded that our values alone motivate our actions, which of course led me to ask another question: what can we do to advance these values?
My focus now is writing about the things I have uncovered, so I can share them with those who wonder what they should do, or do next.
