    This, folks, is the FUTURE OF HEALTHY MASCULINITY.
    Gaz is an ICON for us.
    Of course this lifestyle is not limited to men in any way, but I feel in my body, experience, and mind that this is what us men are missing in the world today.

      Exactly the modern human expirience in cities means a visual and audio overload to our senses. Beside that WE are 100% dependend on our wirkliche in factories, companies- No Matter how healthy the Work enviroments are- WE are totally dependend on IT. From these mentioned reasons there can envolve so much Frustration WE let Out in our private lifes to the people who are closest to us.

      I’m currently in the process of learning as much as I can. I’m in Arizona so the weather is tough. I have a small are where I’m thinking of placing some above ground plant boxes. Luckily I have some tall hopseed bushes that will shade the area after 12pm. Eventually will build simple structure for shade.

    Hey Gaz after 20yrs being homeless i got an apartment thats just been built. In the front room i have a raised garden bed. Its a table that i have all my babies on. Garlic, strawberry, mint, lavender, tomatoes, echinacea and celery. I took the celery end and have it in water with my carnations and other flowers. The bouquets are lasting much longer and the celery end has sprouted really nicely!!! So ahoy from WA USA the west coast ❤❤❤

    I think the longing for home never leaves. Generation after generation. My grandmother on my mother’s side was born in Ireland and as well there were some ancestors from my Dads side from Ireland. I am about 6th generation Australian and have never traveled but have a longing for Ireland. I have always said if I ever went to Ireland I would not want to leave. My sister was able to travel there many years ago and I asked her how she felt and she told me,d me she didn’t want to leave and cried on the plane as she left.

    These types of videos are very enriching because you get others to talk about many things that we would not normally hear on their channels.

    Hi Gaz. I tried growing chickpeas
    this year. They grew ok but it really made me appreciate how much work that goes into harvesting them. You don’t realise how many chickpea plants it takes to produce a big bag of chickpeas. It’s nice to be able to walk around the garden and pluck the green ones off and eat them fresh though. Exercises like these bring us into the reality of how we over consume and take for granted that which is provided for us. Let us be truly grateful and give thanks for all things. May we mindfully think before we eat. 🦋

I finally got my guy into gardening and he's overcrowding our container gardens and starting to see the need to expand. BTW we are baby boomers so a very late start for him. Our soil is very sandy, full of tree roots as we live in the woods, hence container gardening. I just ate our first ripe Cherokee tomato and it was fantastic!
