E5-The Texans- Wedding Ring Tattoos

Strangers Abroad

Puerto Escondido:Mexico The Texans are the last group of people I interviewed at our surfer hostel community in Puerto Escondido, Mexico. They were the mom and dad of our volunteer community and in charge of the organic garden, always tending to both people and plants. They had decided to abandon the American dream long ago- filled with too many catches and contradictions-and aspired for a new life where they can propagate their own food and philosophies. We talk about the ways they are living their aspired alternative lifestyle:engineering their car to run on biofuel, cultivating their own superfoods, and living as DIY as possible in their sunny spot by the sea in southern Mexico. This episode was edited by Jay Dixit, sound engineered by Sean Sullivan, and music was provided by Josh Brechner.
