This gallery highlights some of my earlier yogic escapades in Europe and Asia! We witness three of my eight retreats on Crete (many at Pavlos’ Place in Triopetra), view my shoot by photographer Manu Theobald at Jivamukti Munich (my home for seven years), enjoy some shenanigans near Mt. Fuji from my trip to Tokyo where I taught at Yogajaya during the Winter/Spring of 2009, and take in the magic of Goa (where I studied ashtanga with Rolf Naujokat for 4 months) and the Ganga in Haridwar during the Kumbha Mela of 2010. A two-month stay at the Santosh Puri Ashram rounded out the tail-end of my six-month trip to India. (Click any photo to see larger version with caption.)

We went to meditate in the cave where the great yogi Vashista is said to have lived.
At the Santosh Puri Ashram birthdays are celebrated by making these beautiful flower chakra mandalas and chanting.
