In the Western world, we are born into a culture of listen and obey. From birth to adulthood, everything we do is programmed for us. It is only when we sit back and consider our lifestyles that we begin to question them. Living with another culture that existed for thousands of years, literally leaving nothing but footprints, opens our eyes to true freedom. When they innocently question us about our lifestyles, we begin to realise how controlled our lives have been. Then, returning to England and experiencing years of domestic violence and destructive interference from Social Services, that freedom is lost. We come to realise that true freedom only exists in the lives of an enlightened few.

He became involved in the struggles of the Native Americans and was accepted within a close-knit group of activists. He returned to England seven years later and spent two years with Greenpeace and other conservation groups. He later studied micro-electronics while he found himself trapped in a very violent marriage. He fought hard against Social Services whose arrogance and dishonesty destroyed his family life leaving his nine-year-old daughter fatherless. Having lost this battle, he moved to Turkey to care for an old flame who he hadn't seen for forty years who was suffering from Cancer.
