HISTORY • HERITAGE
earthstOriez compiles, shares & preserves storiez.
What you read is derived from our experiences, observations and encounters – spontaneous human-to-human contact with the locals, free of exploitation by either side.
EarthstOriez celebrates history & cultural heritage, merging temporarily with a place and its people, as much as we can. Exploring and appreciating the heritage around us because of the sheer diversity. Be it in terms of storieZ, landscapes, climates, cultures, traditions, food, attire, language.
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 storieZ we tell.
Collecting tree lore and medicinal plants knowledge, observing wildlife and discovering stories that surround creatures, like the yeti, pandas, orang-utans and dragons. – Grumbling about the National Geographic-worthy, world of critters that infest our beds at night.
Using history and heritage to tell the story of our journey.
