This is me

I’m Adam and I like life adventures. Less ‘going to interesting places’, more ‘living in interesting places’. It all started when I jumped ship from university at the age of 18 and found myself living with children with additional needs in the middle of the Catskill mountains in New York State. After that I lived on a Moshav in the Negev desert, an agricultural community for adults with additional needs in the Cotswolds and then a biodynamic farm which just happened to be connected to the Waldorf school I ended up teaching at for 16 years. Just before lockdown hit I relocated to the Monferrato hills in Northern Italy to help start a school and spent 4 glorious, hectic years there before coming back to the UK. I worked for the wonderful charity Farms For City Children on the banks of the river Severn before getting itchy feet again and heading on up to the Hebrides to live on the island of Erraid. Drawn to beautiful locations, I love to share these places with my two daughters and anyone else who fancies a break from the norm. Experiments in alternative living have been at the centre of most places I have lived; modern urban life seems restrictive to me. I love to be where the non-human world holds sway.
