Macrobiotic Life

From RTW (Round the world) traveler’s discussion

The question of traveling + macrobiotic does interest me a lot. I would like to pack and start traveling all over the world, while eating pure macrobiotic. I am interested in wild nature, where there are no places to shop for 1-2 weeks. The favorite regions to visit are SE Asia, S America, Mongolia, Tibet, India, Russia and all the beautiful mountains on the whole Earth.

I wonder if anybody traveled to wild places and lived on macrobiotic?
I am searching someone with experiences from the adventurous places to give me more courage to realise my plan, because I am still hesitating how to overcome all the problems with food.

I see the purpouse of these trips also from the spiritual view.
I would like to conduct very good macrobiotic lifestyle while traveling, because I won’t have another option and clean my body/spirit while traveling and while being connected with nature.
At home, while spending 10 hours at work, it gets hard to eat well. It needs a lot of discipline to not overeat, to not take too much jin foods, to chew 50 times, to eat slowly and in relaxed manner, to spent time outside and if possible walk barefoot each day.
I envision how my trips will give a completely different charge to my macrobiotic life. Maybe I am only dreaming and the reality will kick me hard and return me back to my city house living. But I hope, it will be the opposite and I will fall in much bigger love with the Nature and that I will feel completely at home in the deep mountains with simple foods.

The more and longer I eat macrobiotic, the more I feel being pulled to the natural life style. To build and live in a house in some mountains and be self-suficient. I really like this direction that macrobiotic leads me.

My big problem with traveling is also that I am alone for this. Not many people would like to undertake 1-2 month living in a strange places and exploring the nature. But maybe I was searching at wrong places. I was searching only localy and today I realised why I don’t share my dream here. If anyone is of the same feeling about the traveling + nature + macrobiotic, please let me know, maybe we can start planning something together

Bellow are photos are from my summer 2007 trip to Iceland. I was eating mostly macrobiotic there for 15 days and I can share a lot of tips and experiences with the Iceland in general if you want. Just let me know in comments.

This last one is not from Iceland, but from the Slovakia – High Tatra mountains, exactly from the east part called Belianské Tatry.
