Simplicity survives...

After a seven-hour boat ride recently into the jungle, in a dug-out local canoe, I found this guy, Atman Ibbuk, in a part of Mentawai known as, Buttui. He is one of the last remaining indigenous people of the Mentawai tribes.

Picture nothing, just wild jungle. No phone signal, no electricity, not even furniture of any kind... and no one else around.

We stayed with him a couple of nights just sleeping on the floor and in a very short space of time, quickly learned his way of life and how easy it is for him and his family to survive.

While the rest of the world went into lockdown and had to learn how to adapt to isolated life, nothing changed for Atman.

Isolation has always been his life. Simplicity is how he survives. He lives off things from the jungle and always gives gratitude to the spirits of nature before he receives.

Recently when I asked the locals if they were worried about Coronavirus, they said "no, we're prepared for it."

They believe that nature, their isolation and their simple, uncomplicated life, will get them through.
