earthstOriez compiles, shares & preserves storiez.
What you read is derived from our experiences, observations and encounters – spontaneous human-to-human connections. Kindness is part of who we are and simple acts of generosity are everywhere around us.
earthstOriez celebrates history & cultural heritage, merging temporarily with a place and its people, as much as we can – exploring and appreciating diversity around us.
Using history and heritage to tell the story of our journey.
Cultural heritage is in the food we eat (rice, potatoes, coconuts), the coffee, tea, mate or tereré, we drink, the clothes we wear, the moral ideas we follow, the arts and the skills we learn – The stories we tell.
Collecting tree lore and medicinal plant knowledge, observing wildlife and discovering stories that surround creatures, like the yeti, pandas, lions, tigers, orangutans, camels and dragons.
Grumbling about the world of critters that infest our beds at night – my partner has all the bites to proof it. Welcome to stories of wonder and every-day life.
earthstOriez aims to contribute to a culture of peace, a culture of social interaction based on tolerance of diversity; a culture that seeks a solution to problems through dialogue and negotiation. Peace is build together, piece by piece – pixel by pixel. With our PAX MUNDI art project we call the global community for world peace – Please build networks of peace.
