Why I live Like an Ascetic In Puerto Rico
Asceticism in Puerto Rico: A Journey to Simplicity and Self-Discovery Asceticism, at its core, is the practice of self-discipline and renunciation of worldly comforts in pursuit of spiritual or personal enlightenment. This school of thought has deep roots in philosophies like those of the ancient Cynics, Stoics, and even Buddhism. This definition of asceticism resonates deeply with my journey, though I did not arrive at it through books or formal teachings. I knew nothing of these philosophies when I first set foot on this path. Instead, here in Puerto Rico, surrounded by nature’s raw beauty, I found that I needed to discard my many layers of conformity and shed my…

Free The Feet: Why I live Barefoot in Puerto Rico
The freedom I Found Living Barefoot in Puerto Rico The Awakening of My Feet For eight years, I have lived barefoot in Puerto Rico, feeling the earth beneath me with every step.

The Simple Life Led Me Here At first,…

Enjoying Beach In Puerto Rico. In Brooklyn, My Beach Was My Bathtub
Born and raised in Brooklyn, I was so disconnected from nature and to the self. I remember as kid we had the fire hydrants in the summertime to cool down.

But for the most part, I remember spending most of my time in my cast iron bathtub. My bathtub was my beach. As an adult, I never went back to those dirty beaches. It was pointless, but now in Puerto Rico, the beautiful beaches and rivers are my bathtub. Now my inner child who never…
