While living in Brazil with Cris my then wife we consciously connected with a nature spirit ‘tribe’ one each; in England, the Republic of Ireland and Sweden.

These tribes had the same ‘attitude’ as Cris and I toward pushing the boundaries and exploring new ways of living.

So as part of this we invited them to come to our land in Brazil to form a different community between these three tribes and the local beings already on the land in Brazil.

A day out interacting with the nature spirits at Belsay Hall Northumberland encountering; pixies, fairies, a water spirit, dwarfs a troll and a nymphile.

The crazy across the planet connections and events to bring together soul mates.

Shortly after leaving my nice and secure but unsatisfying job at Newcastle University to start as a self employed energy worker I received a phone call from Isabella – a Brazilian friend whom I had not seen for about three years. She was in London attending a three week English language training course and after the telephone call came to visit me for the weekend. She is the link to a soul mate encounter . . . .

The unusual tale of inadvertently taking home a mermaid while collecting driftwood.

In early 1996 I went with a couple of friends (Sean and Tassos) on a major drift wood collecting expedition to the west coast of Scotland.
